Really scary how much money was stolen by hacks. I never knew it was so much money that was lost. What would the crypto market look like today if these funds were not stolen? Certainly better than at present, or would it have changed anything?
Well, the risk of losing your investment is always higher in crypto market.
1. It's volatile and unpredicatable.
2. The most scary part, hacking.
Since its digitized and the layman doesn't understand the nuances of this technology, they mostly make mistakes and lose their savings to hackers.
There are various ways to protect yourself though,
Using strong passwords, creating crypto specific id's, using several wallets.
These are some recommended precautions you must take apart from general awareness about hacking.

I agree with this report. This is why I have 2 hardware wallets. People need to remember that this is crypto and that some people will do anything to get it, so practice precaution when investing, trading, buying, or selling crypto.
