What Is the CryptoHacks Archive?
The CryptoHacks Archive is a free, public database of crypto hacks information covering every major cryptocurrency exploit since 2010. From the early days of exchange breaches to the largest bridge hacks and smart contract vulnerabilities of recent years, each incident is documented with the date, amount stolen, affected chains, attack technique, and a detailed narrative of how the exploit unfolded. Our goal is to make crypto hacks information accessible, searchable, and transparent — so researchers, journalists, developers, and everyday users can learn from past failures and better understand the security landscape of decentralized finance.
Every record in this archive is sourced from public on-chain data, official post-mortem reports from affected projects, reputable security research firms, and primary news sources. We trace the flow of stolen funds through mixers, bridges, and exchanges, documenting laundering patterns and recovery outcomes where available. Each hack entry links directly to its original sources and transaction hashes, so you can verify every claim independently. We do not publish unsourced speculation — if a detail cannot be corroborated, it is marked as unconfirmed.
Whether you are researching a specific incident, tracking trends in crypto hacks over time, or simply trying to understand how attackers exploit blockchain systems, the CryptoHacks Archive provides the structured crypto hacks information you need. Filter by chain, category, year, or amount; compare recovery rates across projects; and follow the money from the moment it was stolen to its final destination. This is crypto security documentation, built for the public good.

A weak random number generator in the CryptoJS library affected 5 crypto wallet apps, leading to ~$5.7M in wallet drains across the affected applications.
Coldcard Hardware Wallet (Coinkite)
Bitcoin$116.0M
A firmware bug from March 2021 in Coldcard hardware wallets caused weak seed generation (40-72 bits instead of 128), allowing brute-force key recovery without physical access. 1,816 BTC was drained from 5,200+ addresses across 4 waves by 15+ separate attackers.
SSS DeFi
Internet Computer$9K
