About

HACKINU

A terminal for crypto's latest hacks, drains and security incidents. Follow the reports. Check the sources.

How the screens work

01
Severity is not certainty
Every report carries two separate fields: how serious it would be, and how well it is verified. An alarming claim stays Unverified until sources support it.
02
Unknown is not zero
When there is no sourced loss figure, we say Not confirmed. A missing number is never shown as $0.
03
Sources first
Each report names the source behind it and links to it where a link exists. Corrections and status changes stay visible in the timeline.
04
No coverage is not a clean bill
If a project is not on these screens, it means we have no matching reports. It does not mean the project is safe.
05
Nothing to steal here
We describe exposures without hosting leaked data. Suspicious domains are defanged so they cannot be clicked by accident.

Where the reports come from

Every report on these monitors comes from the DefiLlama hacks database, a public, curated list of crypto hacks. We refresh it about every 15 minutes and keep the last 12 months. The text on each report is built from the listing fields only: name, date, chains, classification, technique, reported loss and funds returned.

Confirmed: The incident is listed in DefiLlama's curated hacks database. It does not mean we checked it ourselves.
Resolved: DefiLlama records returned funds equal to or above the reported loss.
Severity: Set from the reported loss: Critical at $50M or more, High at $5M or more, Medium at $500K or more, Low below that. When no loss is recorded, severity is Medium and the loss reads Not confirmed.
Limits: Dates are recorded to the day. The listings do not link to original reports or post-mortems, and loss figures are DefiLlama's estimates, which can be revised. The threat map shows the 90 most recent incidents.

What this is not

Not a wallet scanner. No wallet connection, ever.
Not financial or security advice.
Not a guarantee that anything is safe. No reports does not mean safe.
