DeFi hacks are going absolutely parabolic right now and it's getting scary.
But here's the thing most people miss: these aren't smart contract exploits breaking Uniswap or Aave-level protocols. We're not seeing core DeFi infrastructure getting drained.
The real culprit? Operational security failures:
• Private key leaks
• Multi-sig thresholds set way too low
• Low hashpower chains getting 51% attacked
Basically human error and poor infrastructure choices, not code vulnerabilities in battle-tested protocols.
If you're deploying or investing in DeFi, audit the team's opsec just as hard as you audit the code. A 2/3 multisig with compromised signers is just as deadly as a reentrancy bug.
