<p>White hat hackers are professionals who work to improve an institution by analyzing the security of the concerned website and helping to develop a more reliable and efficient interface for the company.</p> 
<p>Following the firm’s evolution, the company received approximately $1 Million from leading crypto industry firms, including Electric Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Ethereum Foundation, and Paradigm, among several others.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Reportedly, Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, has individually contributed $500k to the Security Alliance. The move of Samczsun has been hailed by the crypto industry, and the alliance is expected to secure more funding in the coming times.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Frequent cyber attacks, scams, and frauds are a blot on the industry’s image, and can discourage participation and investment. After referencing reliable data sources, it is figured out that more than $1 Billion of funds vanish from the market every year.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Similarly, Chainalysis, a blockchain analysis firm, reported that the entire crypto lost approximately $1.7 Billion in cryptocurrencies in 2023.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>In his X post, Samczsun highlighted that <em>It all started with the Nomad hack. The war room was stressful, and the security community collectively looked back and wondered, “How did we get to a point where random people felt comfortable stealing money from the bridge, but whites felt it was too risky to intervene?”</em></p>
