CertiK: Crypto losses hit $2.7B in 2026, with five incidents driving 59% of the damage

  • —658 incidents recorded year-to-date, adjusted losses of $2.26 billion
  • —September losses reached $766.5 million, the costliest month of 2026
  • —Bitget ($387.5M) and Liquid Network ($318.7M) drove over $700 million in damage
  • —Top five incidents account for $1.57 billion, or 59% of total losses
Why it matters: The concentration of losses in a handful of mega-hacks means a single breach at a major exchange or protocol can materially reshape the industry's annual loss profile.
