According to PANews, blockchain investigator ZachXBT has issued a warning to users to bolster their account and financial security. He highlighted ongoing discount promotions for security tools, including Yubico security keys, Proton and Tutanota email services. Proton supports Bitcoin payments, while Tutanota allows the purchase of gift cards using Monero (XMR) through its official partner, ProxyStore. Additionally, certain products from hardware wallet brands Trezor and Ledger are also on sale.

ZachXBT advises users to avoid using Gmail or SMS-based two-factor authentication (2FA) and to switch to security keys or hardware wallets for storing funds as soon as possible. He stressed the importance of purchasing security devices through official channels to prevent the risks associated with counterfeit products. ZachXBT also reminded users that many security incidents are entirely preventable with the right precautions.
