According to @CoinMarketCap, $3.3 billion was lost to crypto hacks in 2025 even as the total number of attacks fell, with losses concentrated in fewer, more sophisticated supply-chain exploits per CertiK (source: CoinMarketCap post on Dec 23, 2025 citing CertiK). For traders, CertiK’s finding of concentrated supply-chain exploits highlights elevated single-point-of-failure risk across DeFi and infrastructure, warranting closer monitoring of project dependency exposure and security disclosures during risk pricing (source: CoinMarketCap citing CertiK).

According to Crypto Rover, Coinbase has recently become the victim of a cyberattack, raising immediate concerns over platform security and the safety of user funds (source: @rovercrc on Twitter, May 15, 2025). Traders are urged to monitor their Coinbase accounts closely and consider enhanced security measures. Historically, major exchange breaches have led to increased volatility in the cryptocurrency market as participants react to potential risks of further attacks and asset movements. Market participants should watch for potential rapid price swings in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major coins as sentiment shifts in response to this incident.
