Odaily Planet Daily report: Web3 security firm CertiK appeared at the U.S. DC Blockchain Summit, where CBO Jason Jiang participated in a panel discussion, engaging in in-depth conversations on cryptocurrency infrastructure security and industry regulation.
Jason, citing data from CertiK’s “2025 Skynet Hack3D Report,” noted that smart contract vulnerabilities remain the largest attack surface, while cross-chain bridges—due to their highly concentrated liquidity—are the preferred high-value targets for hackers. “In 2025, supply chain attacks caused the greatest losses, with just two incidents resulting in over $1.45 billion in damages; 240 phishing attacks were the most frequently occurring type of attack last year.” He also warned that the complex validation mechanisms of cross-chain bridges and inconsistent security standards across the industry are emerging as core threats to the stability of the crypto ecosystem. Regarding incident response, Jason emphasized that regulatory frameworks should be designed to support responsible vulnerability disclosure, security research, and cross-industry collaboration—not to hinder response efficiency.
During the summit, Jason Jiang also engaged with several U.S. lawmakers to discuss the future development of market structure, how traditional banks can adapt to the new cryptocurrency paradigm, and ways to strengthen consumer protection and address fraud risks, with a particular focus on the collaborative role of technology service providers and law enforcement in preventing fraud, combating crime, and safeguarding consumer rights.
