Sounds like a lot but how much money are banks and wall street stealing from the common people? Banks are making billions off overdraft fees alone. Throw in a good amount of insider trading and fraud from Wall STreet and crypto thefts pale in comparison. P.S. I think most of these crypto hacks are inside jobs and not really from hackers.

Personally i feel exchanges need to be regulated with KYC and AML compliance. I hope they find these criminals to get back the stolen funds.

Blockchain is all good, but some exchanges are really not good in terms of security, and a lot of professional hacker are in this market so I think there will be more like this if there is no strong regulation. We should learn from now on, look at this timeline and you will see that even a big exchange is not that safe, so better to be more secured and don’t put too much money on exchanges.

DEX can solve this problem?

I don't think that cryptocurrency and blockchain is to blame for these hacks, as surely it is the platforms that have the problem in the first place, as they are the ones being breached and not blockchain or cryptocurrencies' code. More hacks would arise in the future if exchanges and platforms don't keep their systems in check and secure. Also, the notion that cryptocurrencies per se are not secure due to hacks is plainly wrong. Exchanges and services have their own code for their platforms which is obviously different from blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
