Crypto Hackers Steal $169M From DeFi Protocols in Q1 2026
Crypto hackers stole nearly $169 million from DeFi protocols in Q1 2026, marking a sharp decline from last year’s record-breaking losses.
Floor price refers to the lowest listed price for an asset within a specific market or collection, most commonly used in the context of NFTs. It represents the minimum amount a buyer would need to pay to acquire an item from that collection at a given time. The floor price is determined by current listings on marketplaces and can change rapidly based on supply and demand. It is often used as a quick indicator of a collection’s perceived value and market sentiment. However, it does not reflect the value of rarer or more desirable items within the same collection, which may sell for significantly higher prices. Monitoring the floor price helps traders and collectors assess entry points and overall market trends.
