According to PeckShieldAlert, approximately 20 major crypto hacks occurred in May 2025, leading to total losses of $244.1 million, which is a 39.29% decrease compared to April. Notably, Cetus Protocol and SUI successfully froze $157 million in stolen assets, representing a 71% recovery from the $220 million theft. This significant recovery rate may bolster investor confidence in DeFi security protocols and could impact trading sentiment positively for projects demonstrating robust security responses (source: PeckShieldAlert, June 1, 2025).
