Keystone to Destroy 18,835 Hardware Wallets After Hackers Steal Device Verification Key

Keystone will destroy nearly 19,000 hardware wallets due to a security incident. An attacker accessed the company's website and obtained a key used to verify the authenticity of Keystone hardware wallets. This key could be used to create counterfeit devices that appear genuine. As a result, users who trust a counterfeit wallet could potentially have their cryptocurrency stolen. The incident did not involve direct access to user funds, but rather the potential for future theft through counterfeit devices.
