In fact, a drop of 95% was seen for these sorts of attacks cumulating to a $745k loss, the second lowest number logged this year after February. It said,
“August boasts the lowest total amount lost since February this year and did not even break $1 million in loss. Over the course of 7 attacks, we recorded $745,244 in damages, an immense 95% decrease compared to the previous month of July. The average loss per attack this month was $106,463 the lowest amount we at CertiK have ever recorded for flashloans.”
