Figure Technology, a blockchain lending firm, was hit by a data breach due to a social-engineering attack. Hackers obtained “a limited number of files,” leading the company to offer free credit-monitoring services. ShinyHunters claimed responsibility for leaking 2.5GB of data, including customer names, addresses, and phone numbers.

TechCrunch reviewed leaked Figure data, which included sensitive customer information. Despite a sharp decline in crypto phishing attacks in 2025, losses fell to $83.85 million. Phishing activity closely followed market trends, with the highest losses recorded during Ethereum’s rally in Q3 2025.

Figure Technology went public in September, raising $787.5 million in its IPO. The fintech firm launched the On-Chain Public Equity Network (OPEN) last month, allowing companies to issue real shares on its Provenance blockchain. This platform enables direct lending or pledging of shares between investors without traditional intermediaries.
