A recent study conducted by TRM Labs has found a worrying increase in cryptocurrency thefts on exchanges (Exchanges by English name). These thefts amount to a whopping 1400 million dollars, only so far this year.
Even so, These thefts are still below the figures recorded in 2022, which were double those registered this year.
Most of these attacks and thefts are caused by compromising the secret keys of bitcoin wallets, the exploitation of Smart Contracts and, also, phishing attacks against users.
So far this year, the biggest theft has been from the company DMM Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency exchange from Japan, with a theft of more than 4,500BTC, for an approximate value of 300 million dollars at the time.
