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.

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.
