币界网报道：Nation-State Cyber Attacks on DeFi Ecosystem Surge by 250% in 2023 A recent report reveals a staggering 250% increase in nation-state cyber attacks targeting decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms in 2023, highlighting growing vulnerabilities in the sector. State-sponsored hackers are exploiting smart contract flaws, phishing schemes, and governance manipulation to siphon millions in digital assets. Major incidents include the $60 million breach of a cross-chain bridge and coordinated attacks on multiple lending protocols. Cybersecurity firms attribute the surge to DeFi’s rapid expansion and lax security practices, with North Korea-linked groups like Lazarus responsible for over 40% of the thefts. Industry leaders urge enhanced audits, insurance products, and cross-chain monitoring to mitigate risks. Meanwhile, regulatory bodies are pushing for stricter compliance measures, though critics argue this could stifle innovation. The attacks underscore the urgent need for collaboration between developers, auditors, and policymakers to safeguard the $80 billion DeFi ecosystem.
