Chainalysis: Crypto Crime May Hit $4B+ in 2025
Chainalysis' mid-year review shows over $2.17B stolen from centralized platforms and wallets by June 2025. This puts the industry on track to exceed $4B in thefts by year’s end.
Notably, ~$8.5B in stolen funds remain unlaundered—sitting idle in blacklisted wallets, likely waiting for low-liquidity bridges or decentralized mixing. A disturbing new trend: wrench attacks, where physical coercion is used to access private keys, rose 240% YoY, mostly in LATAM and Eastern Europe.
Governments are pushing for mandatory reporting of custodial wallet thefts, while new startups are offering “wallet insurance” with varying levels of coverage.
Reminder: Consider multisig, biometric key backups, and geo-locking for large personal wallets.
