According to IntoTheBlock, 20% of major crypto exploits in 2024 were attributed to economic risk factors rather than technical vulnerabilities (source: IntoTheBlock via Twitter, April 28, 2025).

Traders are advised to closely monitor liquidation thresholds, diversify asset exposure, and use on-chain analytics to identify abnormal activity for improved risk mitigation (source: IntoTheBlock, medium.com/intotheblock/t…).
