13 October 2026 · Site-wide review

  • The hardware wallet comparison table was rechecked against the makers' official pages. Corrections include the certification level of Ledger's secure element (CC EAL6+) and the account of the 2022 Trezor incident (its email service provider was breached).
  • The MetaMask security settings article was rewritten for the current version.
  • The article on a leaked seed phrase or private key was split into two response paths: a leaked seed phrase or private key, and a malicious approval.
  • The illustrative case pages were removed, along with scoring tables and figures that had no source.
  • The online seed phrase checker was taken down.
  • Publication dates on some pages were corrected.

17 September 2026 · Phishing case section

Incidents and figures attributed to real organizations without a source were removed. Several technical explanations were corrected, including which address to check in a Permit2 signature, how revoking an approval works, and whether the Trezor Model One has a secure element; reporting channels were changed to local police.

16 September 2026 · Binance Account Security and one case

Binance Account Security: the withdrawal allowlist section now says the allowlist buys reaction time and does not guarantee that a theft is stopped, and adds that editing the allowlist or switching off a security feature can suspend withdrawals for a period. The anti-phishing code section adds that a matching code does not make the link in an email trustworthy, and that a sender address can be spoofed.

Case: Fake MetaMask Extension. Statistics that had no source were removed.
