$112M Drained Across Blockchains, Chain Retrieval Alerts Users
Blockchain security experts have confirmed that an estimated $112 million in crypto was drained from wallets across several blockchains in the first half of 2025.
Notably, the multi-chain exploit hit users on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Attackers used a dangerous mix of phishing links, malicious smart contracts, and wallet drainer tools to carry out the theft.
According to preliminary reports, the stolen assets included ETH, USDT, DAI, and various wrapped tokens. Moreover, much of the stolen crypto has already been moved through cross-chain bridges and privacy mixers, making it harder to trace.
Security teams believe many users unknowingly signed malicious transactions after visiting fake staking platforms, airdrops, or Discord phishing links. Once approved, attackers gained full access to wallets and initiated rapid withdrawals.
As a result, the scale of this exploit places it among the largest coordinated crypto thefts of 2025.
How Chain Retrieval Protects Users From Wallet Drainers and Scams
With attacks like this becoming increasingly common, blockchain analysts emphasize the critical role of Chain Retrieval tools. These tools not only help trace stolen funds but also prevent users from being victimized in the first place.
Here’s how Chain Retrieval helps users stay protected in 2025:
-
Warns users in real time when interacting with risky contracts
-
Simulates transaction previews to detect malicious behavior
-
Monitors wallets 24/7 for unauthorized movements or outflows
-
Traces stolen crypto across chains and identifies blacklisted wallets
-
Supports victims with forensic reports and exchange alerts
Furthermore, Chain Retrieval empowers users with alerts before they engage with suspicious platforms or token approvals.
A Chain Retrieval security expert explained:
“In most of these cases, the victim didn’t realize they were signing away access. However, Chain Retrieval would have flagged the transaction before it happened.”
Therefore, Chain Retrieval doesn’t just act after a breach—it serves as a proactive defense system, helping users stay ahead of scams.
The Attack: What We Know So Far
The $112 million exploit appears to involve multiple threat actors working together across Web3 platforms. Currently, investigators are trying to determine whether the operation came from a central group or from copycat hackers using shared exploit kits.
Meanwhile, affected users have reported:
-
Wallets drained immediately after connecting to dApps
-
Unrecognized smart contracts in their transaction history
-
Tokens bridged and swapped within seconds of signing
Because of the use of mixers and cross-chain tools, the funds were scattered across dozens of wallets within minutes. Consequently, real-time monitoring is now critical to identifying and stopping the movement of these stolen assets.
At the same time, Chain Retrieval teams are actively tracking wallet flows and assisting major exchanges in flagging and freezing suspicious transactions.
Recovery Is Still Possible—If You Act Fast
Fortunately, recovery is still possible in some cases. However, victims must respond quickly to increase the chances of tracing and freezing assets.

2025: A Wake-Up Call for On-Chain Security
The wave of DeFi scams and smart contract exploits has already cost users billions in 2025. This $112M theft proves that no wallet is truly safe—unless users are protected with the right tools.
In response, crypto experts are urging everyone to take basic security steps, including:
-
Avoiding unknown dApps and contract pop-ups
-
Using transaction simulators before clicking “approve”
-
