Of the 5 UAE-linked incidents, 4 documented losses of approximately $8.02 million.

CertiK documented roughly $8.02 million in losses across four of five crypto security incidents in 2026 that occurred in the UAE or involved UAE-registered entities, the firm said in a statement. The figure covers only the four incidents with quantified losses, so it is not a total for all five. CertiK said the tally is its own and separate from regulator-issued UAE-wide statistics, warning that actual incident counts and losses are likely higher given gaps in reporting and attribution. The disclosure puts a first firm-specific number on UAE-linked crypto losses for 2026 and signals that official figures may understate the damage. Watch for the fifth incident's loss figure and for regulator data that could widen the gap with CertiK's count.
