However, this figure represents a 54.2% decrease from May’s losses, which totalled $574.6 million.
The data reveals that the sector recorded the lowest amount of stolen assets so far this year in April 2024, at approximately $60.19 million, while June registered the second-lowest amount. Notably, 60% of these major hacks targeted decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, while the remaining 40% affected centralized finance (CeFi) protocols.
