Trezor, SafePal Data Leaks Raise Security Concerns
CryptoCompass editorial visual for markets coverage.
  • Data leaks have exposed information linked to around 54,000 Trezor and SafePal users.
  • The exposed data could increase the risk of phishing and social engineering attacks.
  • Galaxy estimates the CLARITY Act has just a 10% chance of passing despite a planned White House meeting.

A new wave of data leaks has exposed information linked to approximately 54,000 users of Trezor and SafePal, raising concerns about phishing campaigns targeting cryptocurrency holders.

Although the reported incidents did not compromise users’ private keys or hardware wallet security, attackers may use exposed personal information, such as names, email addresses, or contact details, to conduct social engineering attacks. Security experts generally advise users to remain cautious of unsolicited messages and never share wallet recovery phrases or private keys.

The incidents highlight the ongoing cybersecurity risks surrounding third-party service providers and customer data.

Galaxy Sees Low Odds for the CLARITY Act

In a separate development, Galaxy reportedly estimates that the CLARITY Act has only a 10% probability of becoming law, despite a planned meeting at the White House.

The assessment suggests the firm remains cautious about the legislation’s prospects, even as policymakers continue discussions on the future of U.S. crypto regulation. The CLARITY Act is intended to provide a clearer regulatory framework for digital assets, but its path through the legislative process remains uncertain.

Security and Regulation Remain in Focus

The latest developments underscore two major themes shaping the crypto industry: protecting users from increasingly sophisticated phishing attacks and achieving greater regulatory clarity.

While wallet providers continue strengthening security measures, users are encouraged to verify all communications carefully and rely only on official channels. At the same time, market participants will continue monitoring legislative developments in Washington for signs of progress on crypto regulation.
