Losses from Hacks of Crypto Projects Exceed $1.3 Billion

According to a report by Onchain Lens, crypto project losses from hacks have exceeded $1.3 billion this year. The primary cause of damage was the compromise of access control mechanisms, where attackers obtained privileged rights or critical credentials. The biggest losers were Kelp DAO ($292M), Drift Protocol ($280M), Humanity Protocol ($31M), Step Finance ($30M), and Truebit ($26.5M). The second largest cause of loss was phishing and social engineering attacks, accounting for approximately $282 million. Attacks on oracles—services that feed external data into blockchains—also caused significant damage, with Ostium losing $24M, Blend Protocol $10.86M, and Bonzo $9M. The data indicates that the total damage stems from a limited number of highly effective attacks, rather than hundreds of small incidents. A shift in threat patterns is noted, with multi-million dollar losses increasingly resulting from compromised keys and access permissions rather than smart contract bugs. Security experts emphasize that the human factor remains a major industry risk, as phishing and social engineering remain as profitable as technical attacks. In a related incident, Blockaid reported a $24.15 million hack of the AFX Trade decentralized exchange's cross-chain bridge.
