TRM Labs, a blockchain intelligence company, reported that private key exploits and front-end breaches were responsible for most cryptocurrency losses, which amounted to $2.1 billion in the first half of 2025.

The company added in a report on Thursday that more than 80% of the stolen cryptocurrencies through 75 breaches so far this year were stolen in what is known as infrastructure exploits, which averaged 10 times the losses compared to other types of attacks.

Infrastructure attacks target the technical backbone of the system to gain unauthorized control, mislead users, or redirect assets.

These attacks include hijacking the seed phrase of a cryptocurrency wallet or exploiting the user-facing part of the encryption protocol.

"These methods exploit fundamental vulnerabilities in encryption systems, and are often amplified by social engineering.
