Cryptocurrency Losses Projected to Reach $2.1 Billion in 2025 – Coincu

TRM Labs reports potential $2.1 billion crypto losses in H1 2025 due to infrastructure attacks.

TRM Labs, a blockchain intelligence firm, reports that crypto losses could hit $2.1 billion in the first half of 2025. Of the 75 hacking incidents this year, infrastructure attacks account for over 80% of stolen funds. These attacks significantly affect the technical backbone of crypto systems.

$2.1 Billion Losses Anticipated from Infrastructure Attacks

Infrastructure attacks involve private key leaks and front-end intrusions, siphoning off more funds than other methods. Such attacks often compromise wallets, smart contracts, and user interfaces across blockchains, leading to substantial financial losses and disruptions.

Market experts and analysts are growing concerned as infrastructure security weaknesses persist. Industry leaders, however, have not issued specific public statements addressing this report, indicating a potential need for more direct communication and strategy in response to these findings.

“In the first half of 2025, cryptocurrency losses due to attacks could reach as high as $2.1 billion, most of which are caused by the leakage of crypto private keys and front-end intrusions. Of the 75 cryptocurrency hacking incidents that have occurred so far this year, over 80% of the stolen funds came from so-called infrastructure attacks,” said TRM Labs, a cybersecurity and blockchain intelligence company.
