Non-fungible tokens (NFT) worth $100.6 million were reported stolen over the 12 months ending in July, according to a new report by blockchain analytics firm Elliptic.

Thanks to crypto winter, the value of stolen NFTs topped out in May at $23.9 million, and then tumbled to just $5 million in June and $3.9 million in July. The volume of thefts, however, continues to rise – from 3,473 in May to 3,712 in June and then to 4,647 in July.
