Currently, there is no place where all hot wallet hacks are collected, but it does not mean they do not happen. In contrast, every few months, some wallet is hacked! But we rarely see these hacks in the news. This is why we decided to create this page. This is a list of some wallet hacks that we were able to find. Be aware and know that no crypto wallet is unhackable!

If it is true, the same group probably will be able to hack new algorithms in the future.
