Hackers who stole crypto this year still control $287.1 million in wallets that investigators can watch but have no means to freeze, blockchain security company Blockaid said in a report it released on Monday. The firm examined 60 major onchain exploits from January through August 2026, which it said accounted for $1.18 billion in stolen funds. By Blockaid’s count, only $9.8 million , or 0.8%, had made it back to victims as of Sept. 2, the report’s cutoff. Another $81.4 million was frozen but not yet handed back. Just five of the 60 incidents saw any money frozen or recovered.
