In terms of attack types, Permit signatures remain the most common; the EIP-7702 malicious signature emerged after the Pectra system upgrade, with two major incidents occurring in August. Phishing losses are closely related to market activity, with the probability of occurrence positively correlated with user activity. The third quarter saw the strongest price increase for Ethereum, and also the highest number of phishing losses ($31 million). When the market is active, overall user activity increases, and the proportion of victims also rises.
