Crypto Investors Lost $2.5B to Hacks and Scams in the First Half of 2025: Certik

Crypto’s wild west just got wilder—$2.5 billion evaporated in six months. Hackers and scammers are having a field day while ‘security’ remains a buzzword.

Where’s the money going? Straight into the pockets of digital bandits who treat blockchain like an ATM with weak encryption. Certik’s report reads like a heist movie script—except the victims are real, and the ‘happy ending’ is a Tether freeze nobody saw coming.

Meanwhile, Wall Street still thinks ‘DYOR’ is a Scandinavian furniture brand. Stay paranoid out there.
