The new note is demanding cryptocurrency in exchange for information regarding Nancy Guthrie

According to prosecutors and media reports, another note with Bitcoin demands has surfaced. TMZ, the celebrity news outlet, received it. This letter is from someone claiming to have crucial information. TMZ received the note in the early hours of February 11, 2026, and handed it to the authorities. However, there has been no confirmation from them regarding the legitimacy of the note.

The letter states, “If they want the name of the individual involved, then I want 1 Bitcoin to the following wallet. Time is more than relevant.”

Currently, one Bitcoin is approximately $66,600. This amount is far more than the $50,000 offered by the law enforcement authorities. The sender included a specific Bitcoin wallet address for payment.

Investigators found that the wallet address differs from the one previously linked to the alleged kidnappers.

Since her disappearance, several theories have been put forward by the law enforcement agencies. After authorities indicated possible foul play, the FBI joined the investigation. Savannah and her two siblings have been receiving support and prayers from everyone across the nation.

Savannah Guthrie was also scheduled to cover the Winter Olympic Games in Italy. However, she withdrew from the assignment after her mother’s disappearance. Police had also taken one man a few days back, who was later let go due to a lack of evidence. The person detained was a delivery driver who stopped in the Tucson suburb area.
