Crypto Has Lost $3.63B Since January 2025

CoinGecko counted 245 incidents between January 2025 and July 2026, with the ten largest making up over 72.5% of everything stolen. Bybit alone is $1.44B - more than the next four combined.

Line the dates up and the target visibly shifts. Almost every 2025 entry is an exchange: Bybit, Phemex, Bitget, Nobitex, BTCTurk, CoinDCX, BigONE, SBI. Not one exchange appears in the 2026 half. Instead it's protocols and infrastructure - Drift and KelpDAO landed within seventeen days of each other in April, $577M between them.

Nvidia vs 12 Iconic Companies

Apple, Walmart, Coca-Cola, P&G, PepsiCo, Disney, McDonald's, Costco, GM, Nike, Starbucks and UPS earned $57.9B between them last quarter. Nvidia earned $59.7B on its own.

Top Categories by Raised Amount in Summer

• Exchanges - $700M

• Payments - $537M

• Blockchains - $468M

• Mining & Compute - $433M

• DeFi - $309M

• AI - $262M

• Brokerage - $150M

Exchanges, payments and brokerage together take $1.39B - nearly half of everything raised. That's not protocol money, it's distribution money: the venues where people actually buy, hold and move funds. Investors are funding the front door rather than the machinery behind it.

DeFi at $309

Market Expectations for Upcoming Projects

Polymarket now has live odds on tokens that don't exist yet. Variational leads on both size and timing: 79% to clear $500M, 77% to launch by December 31. Base is the outlier: 57% to clear $500M and 53% to clear $1B, almost no gap between them, but just 13% odds of shipping by December.
