❓ SCOOP: DEFI'S ALREADY LOST $1.3B TO HACKS THIS YEAR, AND IT'S THE SAME OLD ATTACK EVERY TIME
🗣️ Stolen keys have become the top attack, beating out broken code for the first time ever.
🔝 This year's biggest hits:
- Drift: $285M, drained in 128 seconds
- KelpDAO: $290M, compromised verifier
- Coldcard: $130M, predictable seeds
- AFX Trade: $24M, stolen validator keys
- VerusCoin: $19M, same bridge hit twice
🐶 North Korea's Lazarus Group is apparently behind the Drift and KelpDAO, totaling $575M, which is almost half of the year's total.
👀 Most of these protocols passed a full security audit before they got drained.
