八月份的加密貨幣駭客事件凸顯了持續存在的漏洞並引發了人們對數位貨幣安全的擔憂

8 月份，加密產業遭遇重大打擊，駭客透過 10 多次網路攻擊竊取了價值 3.1386 億美元的數位資產。

Cryptocurrency experienced a setback in August as hackers made away with a total of $313.86 million in digital assets across 10 cyberattacks, highlighting the persistent vulnerabilities in the crypto space.

加密貨幣在 8 月經歷了挫折，駭客透過 10 次網路攻擊竊取了總計 3.1386 億美元的數位資產，凸顯了加密貨幣領域持續存在的漏洞。

Blockchain security firm PeckShield noted that phishing attacks were largely responsible for the devastating losses, accounting for 93.5% of the total stolen funds, which amounted to $293.4 million. Of the month’s top five hacks, two phishing incidents stood out, with the theft of $238 million in Bitcoin (BTC) and $55.4 million in Dai (DAI).

區塊鏈安全公司 PeckShield 指出，網路釣魚攻擊是造成毀滅性損失的主要原因，佔被盜資金總額的 93.5%，金額達 2.934 億美元。在本月前五名的駭客攻擊中，兩起網路釣魚事件脫穎而出，分別被盜價值 2.38 億美元的比特幣 (BTC) 和價值 5,540 萬美元的戴伊 (DAI)。

Other notable breaches included the Ronin Network exploit, where the platform recovered $12 million from the hacker but still encountered unauthorized transactions worth $5.1 million. Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Nexera also lost $1.83 million due to a smart contract exploit, underscoring the ongoing risks in the DeFi sector.

其他值得注意的漏洞包括 Ronin Network 漏洞，該平台從駭客那裡追回了 1,200 萬美元，但仍遇到了價值 510 萬美元的未經授權的交易。去中心化金融（DeFi）協議 Nexera 也因智慧合約漏洞而損失了 183 萬美元，凸顯了 DeFi 領域持續存在的風險。

These August attacks contribute to the broader cyber threat landscape that has plagued the cryptocurrency industry in 2024. A report by Immunefi, released on August 29, revealed that the industry has seen $1.21 billion in digital assets lost to hacks and rug pulls year-to-date.

這些8 月的攻擊加劇了2024 年困擾加密貨幣行業的更廣泛的網路威脅情況。億美元。

This concerning trend not only highlights the need for more robust security measures but also poses a significant challenge to the credibility and trustworthiness of the crypto ecosystem.

這一令人擔憂的趨勢不僅凸顯了對更強大的安全措施的需求，而且對加密生態系統的可信度和可信度提出了重大挑戰。

In related news, July saw one of the largest cyberattacks of 2024 when India’s WazirX crypto exchange had $234.9 million siphoned from one of its multisig wallets. The exchange is currently undertaking a phased plan to restore its financial operations and has taken steps in Singapore as part of its restructuring efforts.

在相關新聞中，7 月發生了 2024 年最大規模的網路攻擊之一，印度 WazirX 加密貨幣交易所的一個多重簽名錢包被盜走了 2.349 億美元。該交易所目前正在實施一項分階段計劃，以恢復其財務運營，並已在新加坡採取措施，作為其重組工作的一部分。

To combat these growing threats, a team of ethical hackers has formed an elite unit known as the Security Alliance (SEAL), which is led by white hat hacker and Paradigm researcher Samczsun. Since its launch in August 2023, SEAL has received over 900 hack-related tickets, aiming to bolster defenses and prevent breaches within the industry.

為了應對這些日益增長的威脅，道德駭客團隊組建了一個名為安全聯盟 (SEAL) 的精英單位，由白帽駭客和範式研究員 Samczsun 領導。自 2023 年 8 月推出以來，SEAL 已收到 900 多張與駭客相關的罰單，旨在加強防禦並防止行業內的違規行為。

However, the road to recovery remains challenging, with Immunefi reporting that nearly 80% of cryptocurrencies never regain their value after a hack or exploit, with the loss in value often causing more damage to projects than the initial breach itself. As the industry grapples with these persistent challenges, the importance of robust security protocols and proactive measures has never been more critical.

然而，恢復之路仍然充滿挑戰，Immunefi 報告稱，近 80% 的加密貨幣在遭受駭客攻擊或利用後再也無法恢復其價值，價值損失通常對專案造成的損害比最初的洩漏本身更大。隨著業界努力應對這些持續存在的挑戰，強大的安全協議和主動措施的重要性從未如此重要。
