RWA Projects Becoming Prime Targets

Real-world asset (RWA) platforms — which link blockchains to off-chain assets — are under increasing attack. PeckShield reports $14.6 million stolen from RWA-focused projects in the first half of 2025 alone.

The RWA market now holds $32.32 billion in on-chain value, up 11.76% in 30 days. But its complexity also creates new vulnerabilities. Analysts recommend independent security audits, multi-layer protections like multisig/timelocks, and continuous on-chain monitoring to protect institutional trust in one of crypto’s fastest-growing segments.

The rise in RWA platform hacks highlights both growing adoption and growing risks. $14.6M stolen in just six months shows attackers are targeting the bridge between traditional assets and crypto.

September’s trend shows attackers adapting faster than defenses. The challenge now is building monitoring tools that catch low-volume exploits before they accumulate into massive losses.
