Crypto hacks top $1.1 billion in 2026, with less than 1% recovered

Share

Attackers have stolen more than $1.1 billion in digital assets since January 2026. Less than 1 percent, or roughly less than $11 million, has been recovered, leaving more than 99 percent of the stolen value unaccounted for. Rapid transfers, dispersal across wallets, swaps into other tokens and movement between blockchains make tracing difficult, while stablecoin freezes and exchange blocks remain limited in practice. This situation increases the importance of preventive security, audits, key management and monitoring, as well as potential pressure on platforms and regulators to improve consumer protection and transparency.
