PeckShield: In March, there were 20 major cryptocurrency hacking and vulnerability incidents, resulting in losses of approximately 52 million dollars

According to statistics from on-chain security company PeckShield, there were 20 major cryptocurrency hacking and vulnerability incidents in March, resulting in losses of approximately $52 million, an increase of about 96% compared to $26.5 million in February.

Among them, Resolv Labs suffered a loss of over $25 million in USDT-pegged stablecoin USRT, as attackers exploited a vulnerability in its USR minting contract to mint an additional approximately 80 million uncollateralized stablecoins, leading to a price drop of about 80% for USR, and creating systemic bad debts in DeFi protocols such as Morpho Blue, Euler, and Fluid.

In addition, X user "Sillytuna" reported that approximately $24 million in Aave Ethereum USDC (aEthUSDC) was stolen in an offline attack involving kidnapping and violent threats, with the attackers subsequently dispersing the funds through Bitcoin, Monero, and multiple Layer 2 networks.
