Crypto Losses Plummet to Lowest Level in 11 Months

Crypto-related hacks and scams resulted in $26.5 million in losses in February, the lowest monthly total since March 2025, according to blockchain security firm PeckShield.

The firm recorded 15 separate incidents during the month, but just two were responsible for the bulk of the damage.

The largest was a $10 million exploit of YieldBlox’s DAO-managed lending pool on February 21st, carried out through a price manipulation attack.

Meanwhile, the US Securities and Exchange Commission submitted new commission-level interpretive guidance to clarify regulatory boundaries for cryptocurrencies.
