#PeckShieldAlert In April 2026, the crypto space saw 40 major hacks totaling $647M—a📈 1,140% MoM surge from March ($52.2M). @DriftProtocol & @KelpDAO exploits now rank among the Top 10 hacks since 2021. The KelpDAO exploiter supplied rsETH to @aave to borrow massive amounts of ETH before laundering the loot into #BTC. This has exposed the Aave ecosystem to bad debt risk. In response, DeFi United is coordinating an effort to absorb the liquidity shortfall and prevent further systemic contagion. #Top5 hacks - KelpDAO: $292M (Ranked #7, Jan 2021 – Apr 2026) - Drift: $285M (Ranked #9, Jan 2021 – Apr 2026) - Rhea Finance: $20M - Grinex: $13.74M - Wasabi Protocol
