Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/05/2021 -- The number of cryptocurrency hacks and scams has gone into overdrive over the past year. While overall crypto-related fraud activities have been falling since 2019, recent research suggests that this is not the case in niche areas and the latest target is decentralised finance (DeFi) applications and protocols. It's these crimes (De-Fi related crimes) that continue to surge from one quarter to the next and which are proving particularly lucrative - it's estimated that criminals made around US$471 million from De-Fi related crimes between January and July 2021. De-Fi is a burgeoning area of the crypto sector and one that has been growing increasingly quickly in recent months. It is focused on making traditional financial products directly available, such as loans and trading, so that there is no need for dealings with middlemen. The basis of these products is decentralised apps that use blockchain to perform financial functions and to leverage smart contracts.
