New Report from CertiK Uncovers the Alarming Truth Behind Blockchain Security Failures 🔍

💣 The crypto world has been hit HARD in the first half of 2025. According to blockchain security firm CertiK, investors lost $2.5 billion to various hacks, scams, and security breaches. That’s $14 million stolen every day on average. 😱

💥 What Happened?

Between January and June 2025:

$1.3B+ was stolen through on-chain exploits

$920M+ vanished in phishing & social engineering attacks

$340M was lost in exit scams & rug pulls

🧠 Top Targeted Blockchains:

Ethereum – 🚨 Most affected by smart contract vulnerabilities

Bitcoin – Targeted by phishing & exchange exploits

BNB Chain, Solana, Arbitrum – Facing bridge attacks & rug pulls

⚠️ Notable Incidents:

A DeFi protocol on Ethereum lost $130M in a single flash loan attack

One phishing group drained over $90M by impersonating verified influencers

Several bridge exploits cost investors hundreds of millions

🧩 Why Is This Happening?

Complex DeFi code with little auditing

Over-reliance on centralized teams

Lack of investor education & due diligence

False hype around “moonshot” tokens & meme coins

🛡️ How to Stay Safe in 2025’s Dangerous Crypto Waters:

✅ Only invest in fully audited protocols (CertiK, Hacken, etc.)

✅ Use hardware wallets & multi-factor authentication

✅ Avoid clicking unknown DMs or fake airdrop links

✅ Verify token contracts from official sources

✅ Don’t trust – verify! Always DYOR
