Why is July 23 being called crypto's unofficial Hacker Day? Let's break it down with BitOKOn July 23, the crypto industry was hit by three major exploits within just a few hours.
B² Network, Verus Bridge, and AFX Bridge were all compromised, with combined losses exceeding $35 million.
What makes these incidents stand out is that none of them relied on a conventional hack.
Each exploit followed a different attack path: one targeted a flaw in staking logic, another abused bridge verification, and the third exploited a critical weakness in the bridge's architecture.
At BitOK, we analyzed all three incidents to understand what happened, how each attack unfolded, and how the attackers moved the stolen funds.
