A recent report from security firm Kerberos sheds light on the alarming trend of human-targeted attacks in the Web3 sector, revealing that these incidents account for the majority of financial losses. The source notes that despite unprecedented investments in security, the findings indicate a critical vulnerability in real-time protection for users.

The report, which covers the first half of 2025, estimates that over $31 billion was lost to hacks and scams, with more than $600 million specifically linked to:

This staggering figure underscores the growing sophistication of cybercriminals and the urgent need for enhanced security measures.
