Crypto hacks hit $630M in April alone

Author: Token Metrics April 30, 2026 Duration: 8:02
April just became the worst hack month since February 2025. $630 million gone. North Korea accounts for 76% of all 2026 crypto theft. BTC sits at $76K in Fear territory. The market has a security problem it keeps pretending is solved.

Today's key developments:
• Across 68 incidents so far in 2026, crypto hackers have pulled more than $1 billion in total theft - with DPRK-linked actors accumulating over $6 billion since 2017. The attack surface keeps widening: cross-chain bridges, MPC wallets, and restaking layers are the current vectors of choice.
• Meta just launched USDC stablecoin payouts for creators on Solana and Polygon via Stripe. Separately, AllUnity expanded its euro stablecoin EuraU to Solana. And South Korea's largest credit card network just partnered with Solana for stablecoin payments and DeFi infrastructure.
• MARA Holdings is acquiring Long Ridge Energy in a $1.5 billion deal to build out AI data center capacity - a direct pivot from pure Bitcoin mining toward AI compute infrastructure.
