Crypto Scams Cost $2.2B in 2025Phishing Scams – Main CulpritHow to Protect Yourself in 2025

So far in 2025, on-chain incidents have already cost users a shocking $2.1 billion. Wallet hacks, phishing scams, and data leaks are everywhere, and it’s only getting worse.

CertiK, a well-known blockchain security firm, shared this worrying update, saying wallet hacks and phishing attacks are the biggest reasons for these huge losses

Here’s how you can stay safe from these hackers.

Crypto Scams Cost $2.2B in 2025

This new warning from CertiK comes after they recently shared their big annual Hack3d Report. According to that report, more than $2.3 billion was stolen in 2024 alone through 760 different on-chain attacks. 

That’s a huge amount of money gone in just one year, reminding everyone to be extra careful.

But what’s really worrying is that we’re only halfway through 2025, and already $2.1 billion has been stolen in crypto hacks. The biggest hack so far was in February, when hackers stole around $1.46 billion from Bybit, a Dubai-based exchange.

Thus far in 2025, on-chain incidents have led to ~$2.1B in losses.

Other major hacks include Coinbase losing $400 million, Cetus (on the Sui network) with $220 million lost, Phemex at $85 million, and UPCX at $70 million. Crypto users need to stay alert!

Phishing Scams – Main Culprit

One of the most shocking parts of a recent report is that phishing scams were behind nearly half of all crypto losses. These scams have become smarter and more dangerous.

Phishing tricks, like fake websites, messages, or emails that look real, rose by 31% in just one year. That’s a huge jump and a clear sign that scammers are getting better at fooling people.

How to Protect Yourself in 2025

So, what can you do to stay safe from these attacks? 

Double-Check Before You Click

Always verify links and wallet addresses on trusted sites like Etherscan or Solscan before sending money.

Use a Cold Wallet for Extra Safety

These wallets are not connected to the internet, so hackers can’t reach them. They’re perfect for coins you want to keep safe for a long time.

Watch Out for Social Media Scams

Hackers often pretend to be famous people or make fake giveaways that sound too good to be true. If someone tries to rush you to act quickly, that’s a big warning sign.

Meanwhile, CertiK’s advice is simple be careful, stay alert, and don’t rush into anything.
