Crypto Industry Sees Significant Decline in Hacking Losses

The crypto industry has experienced a notable decrease in hacking losses in February, with total losses amounting to $35.7 million. According to CertiK, this represents a significant drop from January's losses and marks one of the calmest months for incidents since March 2025.

Despite the decline, individual incidents continue to highlight vulnerabilities in oracles, key management, and cryptographic mechanisms. The largest episode in February was the hack of YieldBlox on the Stellar network, where an attacker withdrew more than $10 million through oracle manipulation.
