Keplr just confirmed it. Social login was the weak path... Sign-in with Google is not self-custody. Keplr paused Google and Apple login after reports of unauthorized transactions on some social-login accounts. Recovery-phrase and hardware-wallet accounts are not affected, per Keplr's initial assessment. Hours earlier, Web3Auth paused its embedded wallet service over a security issue affecting some third parties. It said it found no evidence MetaMask users were hit. Keplr's advice for social-login users: do not send new funds to that account. Do not re-import it. Ignore every "recovery" DM. The seed phrase path keeps the key on your side. The social login path rebuilds signing through a provider. Convenience and custody are not the same product. If your "non-custodial" wallet was created with Google or Apple, did you ever hold the key yourself?
