Hacker Attacks on Crypto Services Surge Amid Growing Adoption
Crypto services have seen a significant increase in hacker attacks this year, with the number of incidents rising by 2.5 times compared to last year.
The total losses from these hacks are estimated at $1.3 billion, which is lower than the previous year's figure of $2 billion, but the diversity of targets has increased.
Cryptocurrency exchanges, wallets, asset storage services, and platforms related to digital currency circulation are all being hit by hackers.
Experts point out that the mass adoption of digital assets is a major factor contributing to this increase in attacks, as banks have been under constant pressure from cybercriminals for decades and have built strong defenses.
