User asset security is always our top priority at DeBot. In the early hours of September 16, 2026 (UTC+8), DeBot received a wallet security risk alert and immediately launched emergency protection protocols. Affected wallets have been temporarily isolated. All native tokens and stablecoins will be 1:1 mapped and migrated to new private-key-free wallets. Most meme tokens will also be transferred accordingly, and the new wallets support secure transactions as usual. During the protection period, users can still withdraw and transfer tokens normally, while private key export is temporarily unavailable. We will announce the official recovery time in due course. No abnormal asset losses have been detected so far. 📌 Important Reminders: 1. Please stop using your old wallet once the migration starts. 2. Manually transfer any un-migrated assets (e.g. assets on Polygon chain or residual meme tokens) promptly. 3. Do NOT deposit or transfer any new assets to old wallets. New assets incoming after migration initiation will not be automatically migrated and may become inaccessible. This is a proactive preventive upgrade to secure user funds. All assets are safe, and the system will complete the upgrade automatically. No panic is needed. Reach out to your BD or our customer support for any inquiries.

Former Meta Engineer: Quantum Computing and Miners Are Bitcoin’s Two Ticking Time Bombs A former Meta engineer @techleadhd says Bitcoin faces two ticking time bombs that have yet to be defused: quantum computing and the future of miner incentives. Quantum advances could one day threaten Bitcoin wallet security, while the lack of a sustainable fee market raises questions about long-term network security as mining rewards decline. He also challenges Bitcoin’s vision as a sovereign currency, arguing that governments are unlikely to tolerate a monetary system beyond their control.

“Perfect security doesn’t exist — only real threat models.” @P3b7_, CTO of Ledger, answers tough questions on hardware wallet security, real vulnerabilities, firmware updates, and why some products are just security theater. Featuring @bitcoin2go, @RobynHD, and @FurkanCCTV

In March of 2013, Hal Finney published his iconic story “Bitcoin and me” on the BitcoinTalk forum. He described being paralyzed by ALS and using an eye-tracking system to operate his computer. Programming bitcoin software had become much slower, but he was still doing it. Hal was still contributing to the open-source bitcoin network, believing that bitcoin could help change the world. He had worked on a small controller so he could adjust his wheelchair, and he was developing a bitcoin wallet security project. He described that project as nearly finished, apart from documentation.

HashPort Complete Tutorial for On Chain Frontend Deployment and Domain Binding After deploying the frontend webpage on the BNB Chain mainnet, the frontend webpage will exist in a distributed manner in every full node on the network. Site management permissions are controlled by the Circuit Container NFT, enabling decentralized hosting. I. Pre Deployment Notes and Core Mechanisms Permanence of On Chain Data Files can be updated or have their references deleted in the directory, but the uploaded byte data will remain permanently on chain. Security Red Line: Never upload any private keys, API keys, environment configuration files, or sensitive private data. NFT Container Ownership and Permissions The site is registered under the Circuit Container. The wallet holding that container NFT has full management control. Transferring the NFT will also transfer site control. Fee Structure Circuit Container activation fee: 0.012 BNB. This is only required when you do not already hold a container. Go to to activate one. File upload fee: Only BNB Chain network Gas fees are charged, approximately 0.01 ~ 0.03 BNB / MB. This is not a platform service fee. Monthly service fee: 0.08 BNB / month, paid directly to the protocol wallet. Operator Temporary Wallet Security Mechanism To avoid frequent signature popups when uploading dozens of files, the console will generate a temporary Operator wallet to perform batch signing on your behalf. The main wallet only needs to sign for confirmation twice throughout the entire process. Security guarantee: The Operator private key is stored only in the Session Storage of the current browser tab, and this wallet only has file write permissions. It cannot touch your Circuit NFT or BNB assets. Key operation: After the upload is complete, you must immediately click “Refund balance” to withdraw the remaining BNB balance and automatically destroy the private key. II. Deployment and Domain Binding Workflow Step 1: Connect Wallet and Select Circuit Container Open the HashPort console and connect your Web3 wallet. Select a circuit you already own and have activated as a container from the dropdown menu. If you do not yet own a container, first go to and pay 0.012 BNB to activate one. Step 2: Drag and Drop Frontend Build Artifacts for Upload Local build preparation: Complete the build locally and generate the packaged folder, such as dist. Single file limit: The maximum size of a single file is 8.4 MB. For large images or videos, it is recommended to use external CDN links. SPA single page application compatibility: The system has built in SPA routing support. Unknown access paths will automatically fall back to index.html. Execute upload: Drag the complete packaged folder into the upload area of the console. It is recommended to upload using Operator mode and confirm two signatures. Refund Operator balance: After the upload is complete, immediately click “Refund balance” to refund the unused BNB balance and destroy the temporary private key. Step 3: Bind Custom Domain and Configure DNS Resolution Initiate binding in the console: Enter the custom domain and select the number of paid months, 0.08 BNB / month, then complete payment. Anti squatting mechanism: On chain payment only grants the domain eligibility for Gateway resolution. Which container it actually points to is entirely determined by the TXT record in your domain configuration. Third parties cannot maliciously pay to squat and redirect your domain. Configure DNS records at the domain registrar, such as Cloudflare / Alibaba Cloud: Add the following two DNS records: Record 1 Record type: CNAME Host / Name: The full CNAME host name displayed in the console Value: The Gateway address specified by the console Notes and precautions: If the provider does not support CNAME for the root domain, use the www subdomain or an ALIAS / ANAME record. Record 2 Record type: TXT Host / Name: The TXT host name displayed in the console Value: The selected Circuit Container address, also known as the Container Address Notes and precautions: Only enter the prefix before the root domain. For example, if the full record name is only enter in the panel. One TXT record can contain up to 5 container addresses to support smooth migration. Key Cloudflare setting: If using Cloudflare for DNS resolution, both the CNAME and TXT records must be set to “DNS only”, meaning gray cloud status with Proxy disabled. Activation and automatic SSL issuance: DNS propagation depends on TTL and usually takes anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. After DNS resolution takes effect, the Gateway will automatically issue an SSL certificate, and the website can then be accessed via HTTPS.

The incident affecting Coldcard users this week was extremely unfortunate. Security issues like this affect the entire self-custody ecosystem and can undermine crypto’s promise of being your own bank. To reassure our users: The specific failure behind the Coldcard incident has no equivalent in how Zodl generates recovery phrases. On Android, Zodl relies on the operating system’s cryptographically secure random number generator, which is backed by hardware entropy sources. On iOS, it relies on Apple’s equivalent, seeded from the device’s Secure Enclave. These are the same sources that provide for your device's encryption, the encryption of its connections, and of secure messengers you use. On both platforms, Zodl generates 24-word recovery phrases from 256 bits of entropy, twice the industry-baseline 128 bits as in the Coldcard disclosure. We do not implement the type of software fallback involved in the Coldcard incident. If the required entropy isn’t available, wallet creation fails rather than proceeding with a weaker source. This assurance applies to recovery phrases generated by Zodl. If you imported a recovery phrase created elsewhere, its security depends on how that phrase was originally generated. Keystone (@KeystoneWallet) recovery phrases are generated using entropy from multiple independent hardware sources, rather than relying on a single source of randomness. There is equally no equivalence to the Coldcard failure in how Keystone generates recovery phrases. High-quality entropy is fundamental to wallet security. We take our users’ security and privacy seriously, and we’re grateful for the trust they place in Zodl.
