Crypto hacks plummeted 85.7% in October 2025 to $18.18 million lost across 15 incidents, the lowest monthly total this year.

Summary

The cryptocurrency market saw a significant security improvement in October 2025, with total losses from hacks and exploits dropping by 85.7% compared to September, totaling only $18.18 million across 15 incidents, according to PeckShield data. The largest losses came from Garden Finance ($10M+), Typus Finance ($3.4M), and Abracadabra ($1.8M). Excluding the late-month Garden Finance exploit, losses would have been near $7.18 million, the lowest since early 2023. Despite this low, experts caution that this may be a temporary reprieve, as threat actors, including North Korea-linked groups, are evolving tactics by embedding malicious code directly into blockchain networks, suggesting security challenges will continue to emerge.
