Crypto Hacks Top $768M in September 2026, Worst Month on Record

Content overview: “Crypto Hacks Top $768M in September 2026, Worst Month on Record”. September 2026 saw cryptocurrency hacks reach a staggering $768 million, making it the worst month for digital asset theft this year. The two largest incidents drove the losses: a $388 million breach at crypto exchange Bitget and a $320 million exploit of the Liquid Network. Although over $270 million of the Liquid Network funds were later returned, the sheer scale of the attacks underscores persistent vulnerabilities in even major platforms. Bitget, a top-tier exchange, suffered a massive security failure, while Liquid Network—a Bitcoin sidechain—was exploited through a smart contract flaw.

These events highlight the ongoing risks in centralized and decentralized finance alike. For investors and platforms, the message is clear: security must evolve faster than attackers. As the industry braces for October, all eyes are on whether exchanges and protocols can prevent another record-breaking month. For the complete material, the listing points back to the source inside the network.
