According to the quarterly Security and Compliance Report by Hacken, 67 security incidents in the Web3 space resulted in losses of $763.9 million in Q2 2026, making it the most severe quarter since Q2 2025. Compromised keys and infrastructure accounted for 88.3% of the stolen funds, approximately $674.5 million. Smart contract vulnerabilities remained the most common type of attack, linked to 44 out of the 67 incidents, but corresponding losses represented only about 11% of the total. Approximately 75.5% of the losses stemmed from two incidents attributed to North Korean threat actors, and 14 audited protocols were breached during the quarter. Leo Fan, founder of Cysic, stated that an audit is a point-in-time assessment of a specific codebase and does not automatically cover signature devices, cloud infrastructure, operational permissions, subsequent upgrades, third-party dependencies, or old contracts that remain callable. Samuel Videau, CTO of Genius, pointed out that nearly 90% of losses came from compromised keys, signers, and infrastructure. Multiple security leaders noted that Web3 security requires layered defenses including real-time monitoring, key management, multi-party authorization, and bug bounty programs. Leo Fan expects that operational access control attacks will continue to dominate losses in the second half of 2026, including social engineering, credential theft, compromised signers, cloud or CI/CD intrusions, and attacks on off-chain validator infrastructure.

Kalshi and Polymarket processed a combined trading volume of over $44 billion in 2025. As of April 2026, the monthly trading volume on the two platforms has risen to $24 billion, surpassing the average monthly betting volume of legal sports platforms in the United States. Kalshi reported $263.5 million in fee revenue last year, with its annualized revenue exceeding $1.5 billion since then. Prediction markets operate on a binary contract exchange model, where the platform matches buyers and sellers without placing bets, holding positions, or bearing the risk of event outcomes. Its primary revenue comes from transaction fees, with additional revenue sources including data licensing, API access for institutional traders, and, in some cases, market creation fees on the platform. In the U.S. market, Kalshi is a Designated Contract Market (DCM) registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Polymarket re-entered the U.S. market at the end of 2025 by acquiring the CFTC-regulated QCEX for $112 million. Some states still classify prediction market contracts as gambling, and related federal and state-level lawsuits remain ongoing. The European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) does not directly define the attributes of prediction market contracts, and classification varies among member states. If a platform uses crypto settlement and provides custody or transfer services to EU users, it must also obtain a license as a Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP).

Japan is expected to launch a Bitcoin ETF as early as 2028. With the revised Financial Instruments and Exchange Act bringing crypto assets under the regulatory scope of financial products, Japan's Financial Services Agency (FSA) plans to adjust rules related to investment trusts, allowing funds and ETFs to hold crypto assets as primary investment targets. Multiple asset management institutions have already expressed interest in participating. Japanese institutional investors' interest in crypto assets is on the rise. A survey by Nomura Holdings and Laser Digital shows that approximately 79% of institutional investors and family offices plan to invest in crypto assets within the next three years.However, unlike the US Bitcoin ETF, which is primarily driven by institutional funds, Japan's institutional investor base is relatively limited, and a high proportion of household financial assets are held in cash. Therefore, individual investor funds are likely to become the main source of inflows. Some analysts believe that Japan's Bitcoin ETF could attract up to 3 trillion yen in inflows by FY2028. (Nikkei)
