Personal wallet compromises accounted for 44% of stolen value in 2024, up from 7.3% in 2022, highlighting a shift in how hackers target crypto holders.
North Korea was responsible for a record $2 billion in cryptocurrency theft in 2025, bringing the DPRK's cumulative total to $6.75 billion. The figures point to continued growth in crypto hack volumes and underscore the outsized role state-linked actors can play in digital-asset crime. The data also show a sharp change in attack patterns: personal wallet compromises rose from 7.3% of stolen value in 2022 to 44% in 2024, suggesting hackers are increasingly targeting individual wallet security rather than focusing only on larger platforms or protocols.
