Data from PeckShield, a blockchain security company, shows that about $100 million in stolen crypto assets have been recovered from hacking incidents that took place in March. PeckShield reported that there were over 30 hacking incidents last month, resulting in a total loss of $187 million.

Retrieval of Stolen Funds

Following the hacking incidents, $98.8 million worth of stolen crypto assets have been successfully retrieved, amounting to a recovery rate of 52.8%. PeckShield also highlighted the top five incidents of the month, with Munchables being the most significant in terms of losses.

Notable Recoveries

Most of the reclaimed funds were from the Munchables incident, where $97 million was secured by the Blast network participants after a hacking event. Additionally, there is hope for recovering the lost funds from the Prisma Finance incident, where $11 million in crypto assets was stolen.

Other Incidents

Curio, NFPrompt, and WOOFi also experienced hacking incidents, resulting in losses of approximately $40 million, $10 million, and $8.5 million, respectively. The Prisma Finance hack was reported as a "white hat hacker's recovery plan," indicating a potential for the return of the stolen funds.
