The most severe attack targeted a Bitcoin holder, who lost $91.4 million in a single exploit.<\/p>\n<p>Exchanges and platforms were not spared either. BtcTurk, one of Turkey\u2019s leading trading venues, saw $54 million siphoned in August. This follows a $54 million breach in June 2024, bringing its cumulative reported losses above $100 million.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-168706\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-01-at-13.59.14.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"659\" height=\"382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-01-at-13.59.14.png 1004w, https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-01-at-13.59.14-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-01-at-13.59.14-768x445.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\"><\/p>\n<p>Smaller but still damaging incidents hit decentralized projects and fintech firms.
