TRM Labs: 76% of global cryptocurrency hacking attacks in the first four months of 2026 are related to North Korean hackers

Mars Finance News, the blockchain intelligence agency TRM Labs’ latest report shows that approximately 76% of global cryptocurrency hacking losses are related to North Korean affiliated organizations, with a total stolen amount of about $577 million. North Korea’s share in global crypto thefts continues to rise: 22% in 2022, 37% in 2023, 39% in 2024, 64% in 2025, and further up to 76% in 2026, with cumulative illegal profits exceeding $6 billion since 2017. The report points out that these losses mainly stem from two major events in April: the $292 million attack on KelpDAO and the $285 million theft from Drift Protocol, which together account for about 3% of all hacking incidents during the same period.
