As AI fundamentally changes the economics of attacks, and attackers shift their targets from code to people... Written by: ChandlerZ, Foresight News In the first half of 2026, there were 344 security incidents in the crypto space, with cumulative losses of approximately $1.32 billion. According to the Hack3d report released by CertiK in July, the number of security incidents in the first half of the year also increased by 28% year-over-year compared to 2025. The number of security incidents in Q2 surged significantly from 145 last year to 194, a 34% year-over-year increase. The median loss per incident also rose sharply by 60.6% year-over-year, reaching about $169,000, indicating that even routine small to medium attacks are causing significantly greater damage per incident. On a comparable basis, the $1.32 billion loss in the first half of 2026 is actually about 28% higher than the same period last year. Data source: CertiK It is worth noting that incidents causing major asset losses are increasingly concentrated at the operational level, with attackers tending to target operational areas such as key management, identity credentials, and supply chains. Although these types of attacks are not the most numerous, once critical permissions are breached, they often directly impact core project assets, making them more likely to cause significant financial losses.
