Crypto theft has surged alongside bullish market momentum, with stolen funds reaching a record $2.7 billion in the first half of 2025. Chainalysis reports this year's theft volume has already eclipsed 2024's total, marking a 17.27% increase over 2022's previous worst year.

The pace of thefts is accelerating dramatically—2025 hit $2 billion in just 142 days, compared to 214 days in 2022. At current rates, annual theft could rise another 60% by December, painting a grim picture of escalating security threats in digital asset markets.
