DeFi Hack Alerts

What it is

The moment a hack or exploit hits any major DeFi protocol — you know. Faster than Crypto Twitter.

Why it matters

Hacks rarely stay inside one contract. A drained lending protocol changes the solvency of everything that borrowed against it, and tokens on the same chain reprice as the size of the loss becomes clear. Knowing which protocol was hit, and how, is the difference between reading the news and reading your own exposure.

How to read the alert

The alert names the protocol, the chain, the approximate loss and the attack vector, so within seconds you can tell whether anything you hold touches it. Contracts on the same chain or in the same category — lending, bridges, stableswaps — are the ones most likely to share the exposed pattern. The source links let you follow the incident as it is confirmed rather than as it is rumoured.
