Mishaboar, a member of the Dogecoin community, warned about social signing, which allows users to create and access a blockchain wallet using accounts such as Google, Apple ID, Telegram or email.

Separately, researchers identified two exploit kits, Coruna and DarkSword, targeting older iOS versions and enabling access to wallet data stored on a compromised device.
