Smart contract exploits were 60% of 2026 crypto hacks but just 17% of the losses. Keys, custody and signing systems took 76% of the stolen value.
The Liquid Network hack drained about 4,000 bitcoin, yet no keys were stolen. A patch meant to fix a 2019 flaw let the attacker mint unbacked coins.
Silicon Network, an Ethereum L2 tied to Korean exchange Korbit, is winding down by December 31 with roughly 9.75 million dollars still stranded onchain.
The biggest crypto hacks of 2026 skipped the code and stole the keys. Losses fell below 2025, yet one state-linked crew still took nearly half the total.
DeFi Saver says over $50M sits forgotten in smart wallets across 10 plus lending protocols. More than 200,000 DSProxies are now unused.
A Coldcard firmware flaw drained 594 BTC. Block puts the seed search space at 32 bits, Coinkite at 72. Here is how to check your own device.
Kulipa is winding down over solvency and Solflare Card died at the till. The one hour notice it gave Ready users in June was the real tell.
A 3-year-high CPI sent gold tumbling while Bitcoin held near $61,400. Under the price noise, Tether wired wallets into robots and Japan's banks planned a stablecoin.
The delivery giant operates in 40+ countries and processed $75 billion in merchant sales last year. It is now working with Stripe-backed blockchain Tempo to replace fragmented regional payment rails with stablecoin payouts. Visa, Mastercard, and UBS are also on board.
Push notifications said BTC hit a 52-week low. Charts showed candles at two cents. XRP and Solana displayed the same crash. No major exchange recorded a single matching trade.
Japan's second-largest telecom bought 14.9% of Coincheck, the exchange that lost $530 million in 2018 and rebuilt from scratch. The deal closes in June.
AWS built payment rails for bots with Coinbase and Stripe. The system settles in 200 milliseconds on Base using USDC. Warner Bros. Discovery is already testing it.
Hot wallets offer speed and DeFi access. Cold wallets keep your keys offline and out of reach. The right choice depends on how much you hold, how often you trade, and how much risk you can afford.
Between 2.3 and 3.7 million Bitcoin are permanently inaccessible due to lost keys and seed phrases. Recovery is possible in some scenarios, but the window is narrow and the scam risk is high. This guide covers what actually works, what does not, and how new wallet technology is changing the equation.
Three brands, three philosophies. Ledger leads on asset coverage and ecosystem depth. Trezor leads on transparency and post-quantum readiness. Tangem…
Crypto wallets are the gateway to self-custody and the single most important security decision any crypto user makes. The coverage here tracks what matters: hardware wallet developments from Ledger, Trezor, and the newer entrants competing on usability and security architecture, software wallet evolution as MetaMask, Phantom, Rabby, and others add account abstraction, transaction simulation, and better phishing protection, multisig and smart contract wallet adoption through Safe and similar tools that change how custody actually works for serious holders, seed phrase security and the recurring failures from cloud backups, photographed seeds, and social engineering attacks that drain wallets every week, token approval risks and the revoke tools that let users clean up dangerous permissions, and the quantum threat conversation around long-dormant wallets that could be exposed if cryptographic standards shift faster than expected. The category covers more than just storage. Wallets now handle staking, swap routing, NFT management, and increasingly act as the primary identity layer across DeFi. Coinliva covers the security incidents that expose how wallets actually fail in practice, the new product launches that change the user experience, the regulatory questions around custody and licensing, and the practical guides that help readers protect what they actually hold.
