Crypto Security Gaps Expose Billions to Off-Chain Risks, Hacken Warns
Blockchain forensic firm Hacken reveals a critical blind spot in cryptocurrency security practices. While projects obsess over on-chain protections, off-chain vulnerabilities—including insider threats and credential leaks—are left unchecked, potentially exposing billions in assets.
"Audits shouldn’t be treated as a checkbox or a logo on your homepage," says Hacken CEO Dyma Budorin. The industry’s reliance on static security snapshots creates false confidence; smart contract updates routinely RENDER audits obsolete, yet many firms treat them as marketing tools rather than ongoing safeguards.
