CZ Urges iPhone Users to Update iOS Amid DarkSword Threat

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao urged iPhone users to install the latest iOS update after the disclosure of DarkSword, a vulnerability said to expose data stored across an infected device and turn routine browsing into a security risk for crypto holders. The warning matters because phones increasingly serve as primary wallets and two-factor authentication devices for retail traders, so a single compromised handset can expose seed phrases, exchange logins and session tokens. No specific token prices, total value locked or trading volumes were cited in the alert, leaving the immediate market impact unclear. What to watch next is whether Apple confirms the flaw and patches it broadly, and whether major exchanges and wallet providers push their own advisories or force re-authentication for affected users.
