Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

AI-driven cyberattacks have emerged as one of the crypto industry's biggest security threats following a $6.3 billion hack against Binance, with $8.7 billion in crypto stolen so far in 2026. Attackers are using artificial intelligence to breach complex systems at lower cost and in less time, according to industry experts. The threat is not confined to crypto, with experts warning that AI-enabled breaches could spread to other sectors. The Binance heist and the mounting 2026 losses underscore how AI is reshaping the economics of crypto security. What to watch next: whether exchanges and regulators step up AI-based defenses as losses continue to climb.
