The speed of withdrawal after fractures has become a major problem for the crypto industry. This is stated in the Global Ledger report.
In the first half of 2025 hackers Over $ 3.01 billion was abducted within 119 attacks. This is 1.5 times more than for the entire 2024 year.
New weapons of hackers According to the report, in 84% of the security system recorded the incident on the day of the attack. However, in 68.1% of the breakdowns, assets began to derive before the companies were aware of the fact of hacking.
In 10.1% of cases, the funds were transferred instantly, and in 64.7% during the first 24 hours.

Only 4.2% of the stolen funds managed to repay. The main reasons: slow legal procedure and complication of international interaction.
“The fastest movements are the easiest way, but slow laundering schemes are still in the shadows – in particular, those concerning the breaking Bybit,” the study said.
Experts warned that after large fractures, hackers can slow the movement of funds by breaking them into small parts. Because of this, the average is misleading – they create the illusion that there is more time to respond.
Basic goals and methods of attacks Centralized exchanges (CEX) remain the main targets. They accounted for 54.26% of losses – $ 1.63 billion.
