Golden Finance reported that according to a recent report from blockchain intelligence company TRM Labs, hackers stole more than twice as much cryptocurrency (based on the dollar value of tokens) in the first half of 2024 as in the same period of 2023. The five largest hacking attacks so far this year accounted for 70% of the total amount stolen. Notable incidents include the theft of more than 4,500 BTC worth more than $300 million from the Japanese exchange DMM Bitcoin in May, possibly due to stolen private keys or address poisoning. According to TRM, the most prominent attack vectors are still private key and seed phrase leaks, smart contract vulnerabilities, and flash loan attacks. However, so far, the amount of cryptocurrency theft in 2024 is still far lower than the figures in 2022.
