Just as we step into 2026, there are two things you must be aware of. After years of navigating the crypto world, these two issues directly threaten your asset security—don't take them lightly.

First, the deadly vulnerability in iOS. A system breach is no small matter, and this security flaw allows intruders to directly access and browse your data—your photo albums, digital wallets holding private keys, trading apps, chat histories—all can be read at will. What does this mean for crypto users? It’s basically like having your private keys posted openly on the street, with assets in your wallet at risk of being transferred away in minutes.

Apple’s newly released iOS 26.2 version specifically patches this issue. The security update addresses over 20 vulnerabilities, including high-risk flaws that can directly steal payment tokens and photo album permissions. Don’t rely on luck—whether your iPhone is your main device or a backup, if you’ve installed any digital wallet apps, you need to upgrade immediately. There’s no time to delay.

There’s also a more covert risk that many overlook: what happens if your phone falls into the hands of certain organizations. Some units are equipped with "phone forensics towers" that may seem unremarkable but are incredibly powerful—they can fully back up all data from your phone, including deleted chat logs and transaction history. For those engaged in crypto trading, your phone is essentially your asset ledger. Once fully accessed, all transaction traces, wallet addresses, and transfer records are exposed.

Therefore, these two defenses must be maintained: system patches must be applied promptly, and sensitive devices related to assets should be treated with utmost care.
