Odaily Planet Daily reports that Web3 security company CertiK appeared at the US DC Blockchain Summit. CBO Jason Jiang attended a special forum to discuss in-depth topics on crypto infrastructure security and industry regulation.

Combining data from CertiK’s “2025 Skynet Hack3D Report,” Jason pointed out that smart contract vulnerabilities remain the biggest attack surface. Cross-chain bridges, due to highly concentrated liquidity, have become the preferred high-value targets for hackers. “By 2025, supply chain attacks will cause the most damage, with just two incidents resulting in over $1.45 billion in losses; 240 phishing attacks were the most frequent attack type last year.” He also warned that the complex verification mechanisms of cross-chain bridges and inconsistent security standards within the industry are becoming core hidden threats to the stability of the crypto ecosystem. Regarding incident response, Jason emphasized that regulatory frameworks should focus on supporting responsible vulnerability disclosure, security technology research, and cross-industry collaboration, rather than delaying response efficiency.

During the summit, Jason Jiang also engaged with several US lawmakers to discuss the future development of market structure, how traditional banks can adapt to new crypto paradigms, and ways to strengthen consumer protection and combat scams. The focus was on the collaborative roles of technology service providers and law enforcement in preventing fraud, fighting crime, and safeguarding consumer rights.
