The AAVE-led response and new safeguards underscore the sector's maturity as the bank maintains its $2 trillion RWA outlook.
Despite the shock, tokenized real-world assets are still expected to reach a $2 trillion market cap by end-2028, driven by continued growth in DeFi lending and stablecoin liquidity, the report said.
We still project that tokenised real-world assets (RWAs) will reach a market cap of $2 trillion by end-2028, up from $35 billion in October 2025," wrote Geoff Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, in the Wednesday report.
Hacks and exploits remain a core risk in crypto, undermining trust in systems built on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, where a single weak point can trigger outsized losses.
These risks are amplified by the complexity and interconnected nature of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, while expanding functionality, also widen the attack surface and have accounted for billions in losses due to intricate designs, shared systems and, in some cases, weak validation.
Beyond the immediate damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Major hacks can push users and institutions to the sidelines, invite tighter regulation and slow adoption, making security a key constraint on crypto’s growth.
AAVE and a coalition of DeFi firms moved quickly, committing more than $300 million to stabilize the system. According to the report, the intervention helped normalize conditions, with yields easing and deposits recovering
The bank added that the incident is accelerating structural upgrades. AAVE’s V4 upgrade and the forthcoming Ethereum Economic Zone aim to reduce reliance on cross-chain bridges, a frequent target in major crypto hacks, including this one.
Wall Street bank JPMorgan (JPM) said hacks and stagnant capital levels in decentralized finance continue to weigh on DeFi’s institutional appeal, highlighted by a $20 billion hit from the KelpDAO exploit.

The boss of a global haulage firm has said the two-year lane closures on part of one of the south coast's busiest roads has cost the firm £2.4m.
National Highways' work to resurface the M27 between junction five at Eastleigh and junction seven at Hedge End first began in 2024. It fully reopened from 06:00 BST, although a temporary 50mph limit is expected to be in place until the end of June.
Speaking ahead of its reopening, Bob Terris, from the Southampton-based haulage firm Meachers Global Logistics, said he was "relieved" the "critical" route would be back up and running.
National Highways praised motorists' "patience" and said the works would create "smoother, quieter and safer" journeys.
Terris estimated the disruption had cost the company, which runs 60 lorries in the Southampton area each day, £2.4m.
We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.We know exactly what it costs for the trucks, we know how much time we're losing - it's not rocket science, it's a lot of money," he said.
Terris, who began working at Meachers in 1962 and went on to own the company, welcomed the resurfacing project but bemoaned the economic impact.
It's reduced the productivity of the vehicles, so our costs are higher, and our revenues lower because we don't get paid if they're not moving," he explained.
It's not just the trucks, it's the admin, the telecom, the systems and everything [you have to do] to accommodate all this.
It's an absolutely huge thing, but we're only one company, just multiply this across the whole region and see how much it's costing."
Professional magician Darren Snelgar said the traffic caused by the roadworks had been a problem as he has been travelling to gigs
It's been a bit of a nightmare, with the traffic building up every night around about three, half-past three, so it's been a right pain," he said.
The two-year £83m project to upgrade the motorway, which runs between the New Forest and Portsmouth, first began in March 2024.
It came as part of a National Highways scheme to replace routes built using concrete with asphalt to reduce noise and ensure the road lasted longer.
It has also involved work to improve drainage and strengthen the central reservation.
Richard Scrase, programme delivery manager at National Highways, said they were "grateful" for motorists' "continued patience".
These improvements have created a smoother, quieter and safer journey for drivers, while helping the road last for generations to come," he added.
