Crypto’s Quietest Month In Nearly A Year — But Hackers Haven’t Gone Away

February 2026 saw crypto hack losses drop to just $26.5 million across 15 incidents, representing a 69% decline from January and the lowest monthly figure in 11 months. Two major attacks on YieldBlox ($10M) and IoTeX ($9M) accounted for over 70% of total losses, while improved security standards and AI-powered monitoring tools are helping reduce vulnerabilities.
