According to Protos, citing statistics from blockchain security firm PeckShield, the crypto industry suffered 56 major hacking incidents in October 2026, with total losses reaching approximately $6.48 billion—an increase of about 745% compared to September's $766.49 million. The report attributed the vast majority of these losses to the Binance incident, which involved approximately $6.3 billion, of which about $3 billion in funds have been frozen on-chain. The figures above represent the monthly attack losses and the frozen amounts at the time of reporting.
