Crypto theft involves the unauthorized appropriation of digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies or non-fungible tokens, from an individual or entity. This can occur through various malicious activities, including phishing scams, exploit of smart contract vulnerabilities, or compromise of private keys. Such incidents result in the permanent loss of assets for the victim. The irreversible nature of blockchain transactions often complicates recovery efforts.
