Security Notice & Phishing Alert
Following the recent Liquid Network incident, scammers are impersonating Liquid and Blockstream and urging users to "take action." Don't.
Blockstream will never ask for your recovery phrase or PIN, ask you to send funds, or provide a link for updated software.
Never - Send funds to a "recovery" address
Never - Enter your seed on a "migration" site
Never - Install firmware or software from an email link
Never - Reply to unsolicited DMs
Treat as scams: "mandatory security update" emails and portals, refund / re-peg / "claim L-BTC" sites, fake support DMs, lookalike domains, and unsolicited "white-hat" or bounty outreach.
For verified updates, go only to blockstream.com or the official Blockstream app from the official app stores.

Blockstream Jade is unaffected by the NPM supply chain attack targeting JavaScript packages.
Always confirm the exact send and receive address on your Jade screen before approving any transaction to avoid risks from address-swapping malware.
Don't Trust. Verify.
🚨 There’s a large-scale supply chain attack in progress: the NPM account of a reputable developer has been compromised. The affected packages have already been downloaded over 1 billion times, meaning the entire JavaScript ecosystem may be at risk.
The malicious payload works by silently swapping crypto addresses on the fly to steal funds.
If you use a hardware wallet, pay attention to every transaction before signing and you're safe.
If you don’t use a hardware wallet, refrain from making any on-chain transactions for now.
It’s still unclear whether the attacker is also stealing seeds from software wallets directly at this stage.
Excellent report here: jdstaerk.substack.com/p/we-j…

The Blockstream app does not use JavaScript or NPM.
The Blockstream app and Blockstream Jade are unaffected by the ongoing NPM JavaScript supply chain attack.
As always, verify your send and receive addresses.

1/ IMPORTANT REMINDER: On Jan 25, the DynaFed transition occurred successfully.
A reminder that peg-in addresses generated before that date belong to the previous fedpegscript. Old addresses will be honored for a limited period, until the end of the current epoch, on Feb 7.

Japanese exchange Liquid.com / Liquid Global was hacked today for somewhere between $74-90M.
This should not be confused with @Liquid_BTC / Liquid.net which is a #Bitcoin sidechain. The #LiquidNetwork is operating normally and all funds are SAFU.
