The 83 incidents have only amounted to $750 million; before, one case was $3.5 billion. Has the thief switched to bulk-style selling now? Cross-chain bridges are still the worst-hit area—this whole script is one I know well.

CoinWorld News reports that, according to Unfolded statistics, 83 security incidents in the cryptocurrency industry have occurred in the second quarter of 2026, setting a new record for the number of hacker attacks in a single quarter. Despite the significant increase in attack frequency, the total losses amount to approximately $755.3 million, still well below the historical peak of about $3.56 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020. Data shows that current attack patterns are shifting from a few large-scale thefts to more frequent small-scale attacks, with the largest incidents this quarter being the theft of $293 million from KelpDAO and $280 million from Drift Protocol. Cross-chain bridge attacks caused about $351 million in losses, accounting for nearly half of the total losses; administrator privileges being compromised and fake token price manipulation each account for about 37%, and private key leaks account for approximately 5.7%.
