Cryptocurrency hackers have been hit by the industry’s mainstream reputation despite the continuous efforts to steal more than $ 90 million in April to improve cyber security.
According to a April 30 report by the Blockchain Cybersecurity Firm Immunefi, hackers started with $ 150,000 digital assets on April 30.
The gun was 124% higher than March when hackers stole $ 41 million.
The largest hacking for the open source platform UPCX has been damaged in April, with more than $ 70 million losses, and KiloEX has lost $ 7.5 million in April.
KiloEX Exploit returned a stolen fund a few days after the attack.
All reported attacks in April are for the Defi (Defi) platform. The centralized exchange reported that there was no incident for a month.
IMMUNEFI has paid more than $ 116 million to a white hat hacker, saying that it helps to protect $ 190 billion of user funds.

National support threats increase alarms
This report is the biggest hack in cryptocurrency after almost two months after BYBIT EXCHANGE lost more than $ 1.4 billion on February 21.
According to Mitchell Amador, the founder and CEO of Immunefi, “The size of the attack shows how national support actors will be the most urgent threat to our industry.
Amador told Cointelewraph, “This reminds us of the need for security measures that help protect the entire security stack and prevent protocols from preventing fatal attacks.
“The attacker must build a protocol for elasticity, assuming that the attacker will find the way, and the investor must assume that even the safest interface or e -mail can be a trap.”
He urged the protocol to adopt a “zero trust” approach and implement more powerful protection in the entire technology stack.

He said bug bounty, regular audit and formal verification are essential to ensure the security of smart contracts and support infrastructure.
According to Immunefi, the hackers have already been stolen in more than $ 1.7 billion in 2024, and have already surpassed $ 1.49 billion in 2024.
In the second half of 2024, the North Korean Lazarus Group’s suspension of the state -supporting group may be a relocation to prepare for the world’s largest hacking for BYBIT.
