Bitcoin bulls just had a monster quarter. So did crypto hackers: Crypto Daily
Summary
Crypto recorded 247 security incidents in the third quarter, causing $1.26 billion in losses, according to CertiK. Year-to-date losses reached $2.68 billion; September alone saw 99 incidents and $768.5 million stolen, both reported as 2026 highs. Meanwhile, on-chain insurance capacity fell 20.2% year over year to $130.2 million, leaving coverage limited relative to potential losses. Blockaid warned that AI agents could introduce additional risks, particularly through prompt-injection attacks. Separately, ether’s relative strength against bitcoin has stalled, and a break below the Ichimoku cloud could signal a bearish reversal.
