Key Points:
  • Immunefi CEO warns 80% of hacked crypto projects don’t recover.
  • Experts see major operational and trust issues exposed.
  • Prevention, recovery plans crucial for project resilience.

Immunefi CEO Mitchell Amador highlighted that nearly 80% of crypto projects hit by major hacks struggle to recover, citing operational and trust issues as key barriers to recovery.

This underscores the critical need for effective incident response plans, with delays often worsening financial and reputational damage across the crypto sector.

80% Hacks Damage Crypto Operations Beyond Repair

Mitchell Amador claimed that many crypto projects fail to recover post-hack. This issue stems from the lack of comprehensive security plans, leading to operational and trust collapse. Mitchell Amador, CEO, Immunefi, “nearly 80% of crypto projects experiencing major hacks never fully recover due to operational and trust breakdowns during response.” Immunefi’s analysis shows absence of incident response exacerbates losses.

Project resilience suffers as abrupt operational halts amplify concerns. Protocols fear reputational damage, creating hesitation. Amador highlighted, without communication, panic can worsen. Improving operational readiness is essential.

The community’s response emphasizes security inadequacies. In interviews, Amador notes enhancements in audits and verification processes. He predicts 2026 would see enhanced security standards due to improved on-chain monitoring.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward.

Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
