@safe guards with cosigners make web3 more accessible and secure for users and are used by @HypernativeLabs, @getfailsafe or @blockaid_. Varangian is a simple cosigner that you can host yourself on GitHub. Read more about it on our blog: safe.global/blog/safe-rese…

Safe v1.5.0 is here 🟢 @V_Seehausen (DevRel at SafeLabs) and @NLordello (Lead Research Engineer, Safe Research) break down the key features: ✅ Module Guards - Enhanced security for module transactions ✅ Extensible Fallback Handler - Better composability ✅ @zkSync native…

A large share of perceived security and trust still lives in Wallet UIs. With smart accounts, we can rethink the architecture to move the industry away from monolithic wallet UIs. "How John?" 👉Put the transaction queue as the central component instead of the UI Make our…

🚨 How many signers can own a multi-sig? What if you could do 1,000,000-of-10,000,000 signatures for the same gas cost as 2-of-3? A massive upgrade could be possible, allowing for many new use cases. Enter FROST — standardized, secure, and 95% cheaper than pairing-based sigs.…

What does decentralization mean and what is the right level? These are important questions to the Safe Research team. Harbour explores an extreme, which is to put everything onchain. We want to find the sweet spot where cypherpunk principles meet awesome UX.…

Our R&D team has been cooking 🧑‍🍳 We've started building Safe Harbour which moves the queue process 100% onchain for Safe transactions It's actually a throwback to the OG Gnosis Multisig. To make signing multisig transactions as trustless and onchain as possible. Try out the…

Like Ethereum, our Safe R&D team pledges to the cypherpunk values of privacy, security and censorship resistance. As @pcaversaccio wisely said "This shit matters"

100 ETH were assumed lost but could eventually be recovered. Here's what happened, how it became a happy ending and what's needed to prevent this from happening again. Context A user of Safe{Wallet} wanted to bridge 100 ETH from Mainnet to Base. But then they realized that they…

I lost my life savings in one click using @safe last night. That's after 8 years of holding ETH and avoiding scams. A UX bug within the official Bridge feature, implied the destination address was my Safe on Base. It wasn't. Essentially, due to the age of my Safe, a bad actor had…

EIP-7702 enables a permissionless, multi-chain deployment process. This is especially useful for factory contracts. Instead of a centrally managed private key, we can use a publicly known one and utilize 7702. Check it out ethereum-magicians.org/t/multi-chain-… Kudos to @NLordello

Introducing Circles — an ambitious experiment on money. For the first time ever, you can create your own money without needing a bank or a government. 🧵

What is the most decentralised way to get payloads from dapps for your wallet solution to sign?

As Safe{Wallet} is rolling out to more networks, you can still access and manage your Safe account on several other interfaces with this comprehensive guide. As always, verify each transaction that you sign.

What I see as the three consequences for @safe from the Bybit hack: 1) No more blind signing from HW 2) Institutional offering 3) Safenet can not come fast enough 1) It is true that HW support for Safe is currently poor. There are a few notable exceptions but this needs to be a…

The real power comes from Safenet being an open system where various “processors” can provide their unique features as part of the transaction lifecycle. Here's a few ideas...

Safenet is @Safe’s most ambitious project so far as it challenges how we should think about transactions entirely. The magic comes from unbundling transaction EXECUTION and SETTLEMENT. A thread on what that means. 🧵

Visa connected merchants and banks, through a network that decoupled tx execution with settlement Safenet will do the same, except connect liquidity with dapps BUT this network will be decentralised + will comply with a smart account rather than a company GDP 🤝 onchain
