We owe you an apology.
On October 20, we detected unauthorized access to our official website. After verifying API activity with Shopify, we confirmed on October 23 that a third party obtained customer shipping information. You trusted us with those details, and we're sorry we didn't keep them safe.
Exposed: names, contact details, shipping addresses, and order details (items and prices).
Not exposed: payment card or bank details, recovery phrases, private keys, or wallet passwords.
We've blocked access, fixed the vulnerability, opened an investigation, and are emailing affected customers.
Scammers may pose as Keystone by phone, text, email, or mail, offering refunds, replacement devices, or "fixes" for your order or address. None of it is from us.
NEVER share your recovery phrase or private keys, and NEVER enter your recovery phrase into a device you didn't order. We will never ask for them. Don't click links in unexpected messages. Type keyst.one yourself.
A detailed report is coming soon.
Until then, trust only our official channels. If anything feels off, email [email protected]. We'd rather hear from you than have you take a chance.
Again, we're truly sorry to everyone affected.
slicing clearly across thousands of light-years... and all humans would see is a twinkling star, since we have no way of deciphering this lights tech
purity physics allows. A Type II civilization enclosing a star with a Dyson swarm could pump gigawatts of power into a laser stabilized by an ytterbium frequency standard. This would create a beam that is not just raw light, but a structured, un-degradable cosmic data pipeline
Why Ytterbium? To transmit data across light years without the signal degrading into noise, the carrier wave must be perfectly stable. Because an ytterbium clock splits time into 518 trillion ultra-narrow slices every second, it creates a laser beam with the tightest spectral
The Bandwidth Problem: Brute-force radio waves (like the 9.1 GHz Cesium standard) carry very little data per second. Higher frequencies carry more information. A coherent 518 THz laser beam operates in the optical range, allowing for compressed, hyper-dense data multiplexing.
The Interstellar "Internet" Backbone
The Kardashev scale measures a civilization's advancement by the total energy it controls. Nikolai Kardashev pointed out that a primary use for this massive energy budget would be intergalactic data transmission. π§΅

Call me paranoid, but be extra careful visiting ANY web site in the next few days, as some web admins are not always up-to-date with security patches.
Two vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) reported for PHP, the web programming language, affecting servers running popular apps like WordPress and Magento, with patches released October 21, 2026 after details leaked early.
Exploitation was confirmed in the wild soon after disclosure, prompting quick WAF protections and patching by IT teams, as unauthenticated attacks could turn visited sites into vectors for credential theft or device exploits.
Stay SAFU!
No they were only ever found along coastal cities, you think it was more likely never traded across 100s of tribal lands along the route instead of directly sailed to along the coast only a 1/3 more than the distance than they already traveled?
further cryptography, scaling, privacy layers, etc faces higher execution risk if coordination and capital for development weaken. can we continue to build while the masses riot and burn everything to the ground, can we continue to dream if our lives become nightmares?
sustained geopolitical fragmentation, higher inflation or capital controls, institutional distrust, slower or disrupted tech coordination increases demand for a neutral, censorship-resistant store of value rises while the need for continuous protocol upgrades falls
Bitcoin prioritizes fixed, minimal functionality that is already complete; Ethereum prioritizes ongoing expansion that remains incomplete by design.

Ledger hacker used zcash and was traced.
Ledger theft, day two. Since yesterday the thief has pushed ether through Tornado Cash three times, and each time on into Zcash's shielded pool. We followed every lot out the far side. Here is how, step by step.
1. THE SAME BUILD, THREE TIMES
An ether wallet pays a fresh splitter. The splitter pays four fresh wallets. The four drop it into Tornado Cash's 100, 10 and 1 ETH pools. Minutes, every time.
Run 1, yesterday 15:17: 1,254 ETH. Run 2, today 09:42: 1,291 ETH. Run 3, today 11:56: 450 ETH from 0xfa4EaBB840A33C156E600311433AE261CBfCb0e2, in the pools by 12:15.
2. OUT OF TORNADO CASH
The mixer breaks the link between a deposit and a withdrawal. We do not need the link. Our tooling fingerprints the withdrawal transactions themselves: how each one is constructed, who constructs it, and when.
Yesterday's 65 withdrawals (1,084 ETH) and today's 96 (1,726 ETH) all carry the same signature. The six other withdrawals from those pools in today's windows do not. Run 3 came out from 12:18 into 0x0d697aa182801566d87adc86e68e95fd3b2f5f82 (213 ETH) and 0x676b16cc18542f37d202a1a79ac05463395496a4 (122 ETH), and 195 ETH of it was inside a cross-chain swap service by 12:38. Forty-two minutes, end to end.
3. INTO ZCASH, AND OUT AGAIN
The swap service turns the ether into shielded ZEC, where sender, amount and recipient vanish. But the service's own shielding of each lot is public, and from it we derive a value signature for that lot's exit, then scan every transparent exit from the pool. 108 of 108 exits across both days match their lot to the zatoshi. Not one other exit from the pool does.
First lot today: in at 10:18:18, out at 11:06:16 in block 3512847 (8d26a9b095d4d28373527f7a6eb81a3be7f906d1e2190960c0512ff64f369418 and 738c6d1261e79766e4dd16bdbd38dced91b8e3a86ce41dcda83eda1f19208fbf), straight into a ZEC to USDC order.
Today so far: 20 lots ordered (2,379 ZEC, $2.9m), 14 out, 5 inside the pool, 1 still settling. Every exit feeds a ZEC to USDC order paying two wallets born at 11:11, 22 of the 28 paid by 12:43:
0x816D5Ee17DB1495d1409F135b98FF3edc5F3cDf8: 940,561 USDC
0xBA736A4b616e79867B6d586293966b552883f3F3: 852,258 USDC
1.79m USDC, unspent. @Circle can freeze it.

Continuing the era of you can just do things:
It is reasonable to assume that @MagicalTux doing physical audits of ledgers from resellers, to then find tampered hardware, identifying the supply chain attack saved hundreds of millions of dollars (if not billions one day) of wealth.
I salute you sir π«‘

holy shit lmao
Need 10,000 qubits somehow all entangled working together at the exact same temp in giant array attacking one wallet for potentially decades so ya sell sell sell
