馃毃馃殌Hackers Level Up: $2.2B in Crypto Lifted in 2024 $BTC

2024鈥檚 heist game was next-level, with $2.2B drained from the crypto scene - up 21% from last year.

Big names like Japan鈥檚 DMM Bitcoin lost $305M, while WazirX in India saw $234.9M disappear. Sloppy key management? Still hackers' fave exploit, making up 43.8% of the damage.

The laundering ops? Stealth mode - mixers and multi-step transfers masked trails like it's a casino heist movie.

The takeaway: sharper security is a must if crypto鈥檚 going to keep its edge.
