April’s Crypto Carnage: Hackers Drain $357M from 18 Major Exploits
Crypto’s ’trustless’ system got a brutal reality check last month—attackers bypassed security like Wall Street skirts regulations. From DeFi protocols to cross-chain bridges, nothing was sacred.
Here’s the damage report: $357 million vanished across 18 major incidents. The worst hit? A single exploit accounting for nearly half the total losses. Meanwhile, exchanges keep peddling ’unhackable’ wallets—between this and their fee structures, maybe they’re the real con artists.
Yet the market barely blinked. Bullish sentiment plows ahead, because in crypto, someone else’s hack is just your buying opportunity.
