Dogecoin developer warns of risks in Keplr wallet’s social signing feature

Dogecoin community member Mishaboar has voiced concerns regarding the security of social signing features in blockchain wallets. This follows reports of unauthorized transactions affecting some users of Keplr, a multichain wallet that supports Cosmos, Bitcoin , Ethereum , and Starknet. The incidents reportedly involved accounts created using Google or Apple login options. Keplr acknowledged receiving these reports and confirmed that it has escalated the issue to the Web3Auth team. Both parties are currently collaborating to identify the source of the unauthorized access and assess the scope of the problem. Keplr’s integration with Web3Auth allows users to bypass traditional seed phrase management by using existing credentials from widely-used platforms, a method known as social signing. Mishaboar has criticized this convenience, suggesting it leaves users more exposed to security threats.
