Crypto Hacks: The Human Factor is the Biggest Risk

Cybercriminals are making a killing in the crypto world, with over $2.47 billion stolen so far this year alone, according to CertiK data. This figure surpasses last year’s total losses and signals just how adaptable these attackers have become. A recent Bybit breach, worth $1.4 billion, is now the largest ever recorded in crypto history, contributing significantly to this year’s theft spree. 2025 is on track for another record-breaking year of digital asset theft. But while technology advances in security measures, cybercriminals are focusing their efforts on a different target: human error.
