        2022 saw high mark of litigation, but viability is uncertain   
        Crypto exchanges, wallets, phone service providers targeted   
      
   Lawsuits against cryptocurrency exchanges, digital wallet providers, and   
   mobile service companies following cyberattacks reached a new high in   
   2022, as hacking victims increasingly test unproven legal claims to   
   recoup their crypto losses.   
      
   At least 50 individual lawsuits and proposed class actions have been   
   brought since 2017 by victims—and occasionally companies—against   
   entities they blame for failing to protect their crypto assets from   
   hackers, a Bloomberg Law analysis of federal court dockets found. Fewer   
   than 10 suits were being filed annually before the total jumped to 17 in   
   2021 and rose to 20 in 2022, the data show.
