September Crypto Hack Losses Exceed 768M $ Crypto-sector losses from cyberattacks surged in September. According to crypto security data, total losses from hacks and exploits exceeded 768M $, making it 2026's largest monthly loss so far. The September loss was about 462% higher than August's ~136.3M $, showing a sharp month-over-month increase. ## Most Losses Came From Two Attacks Most September losses came from two major attacks. The Bitget hack caused ~387M $ in losses, while the Liquid Network attack cost ~320M $. Together, these incidents accounted for most monthly losses. A total of 99 separate exploit incidents were recorded. ## Q3 Losses Reached 1.2B $ The impact extended beyond September. Total losses from hacks and exploits reached ~1.2B $ across Q3. However, not all stolen assets were permanently lost. In some cases, white-hat security interventions helped recover part of the funds. ## Crypto Security Risk Back in Focus September's losses have renewed concerns over security risks affecting centralized platforms, blockchain networks and smart contracts. The concentration of losses in several major attacks shows that vulnerabilities can affect not only individual platforms but also investor confidence and operational risks across the crypto sector. September becoming 2026's heaviest hack month once again highlights the importance of cybersecurity investment, asset-protection mechanisms and post-attack fund recovery. $BTC $ETH
