Crypto ທີ່ຖືກລັກໄປທັງຫມົດ $ 3B ຍ້ອນວ່າແຮກເກີເກີດຂື້ນຫຼັງຈາກລະດູຮ້ອນທີ່ງຽບສະຫງົບ: Chainalysis

Hackers have outdone themselves.

With four new exploits reported on Tuesday, $718 million has now been stolen across 11 different Defi protocols, according to blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis.

After only two weeks, that means October has become the biggest month this year for hacker exploits.

That brings the running tally for the year to $3 billion across 125 different hacks, according to Chainalysis, and puts 2022 on track to outdo the ສູງສຸດຕະຫຼອດການຂອງ $ 3.2 ຕື້ for stolen crypto funds set last year.

The latest hacks include $100 million stolen from ຕະຫຼາດangoາກມ່ວງ, a Solana DeFi trading platform; a ການຂຸດຄົ້ນ 1 ລ້ານໂດລາ stolen from the bridge that connects QANplatform to the Ethereum network; and a ເງິນ 2.3 ລ້ານໂດລາ worth of tokens stolen from TempleDAO.

An exploit was also identified in ກະເປົາເງິນ Rabby, an Ethereum wallet service, on Tuesday. The full scope of the exploit hasn’t been disclosed yet, but the project’s team said on Twitter this morning that they have “requested a negotiation with the hacker.”

DeFi hacks take turn for the worse in 2022

It hasn’t always looked like 2022 would be a big year for crypto thieves.

There was a flurry of activity at the start of the year when criminals stole $1.7 billion—most of it coming from DeFi—in the first five months of the year.

But activity dropped off as the market reacted to the ຫຍໍ້ TerraUSD ແລະການລົ້ມລະລາຍຂອງ ສາມນະຄອນຫຼວງລູກສອນ, ຍານອາວະກາດ Voyager, ແລະ Celsius.

In August, Chainalysis published ການປັບປຸງ to say that illicit activity had fallen by 15% in volume as most forms of “cryptocurrency-based crime” were down with the rest of the market.

But the activity has picked back up in a big way.

“Cross-chain bridges remain a major target for hackers,” Chainalysis wrote on Twitter, “with three bridges breached this month and nearly $600 million stolen, accounting for 82% of losses this month and 64% of losses all year.”
