Marshall Hayner dropping a security thesis that could flip the hardware wallet game:
"Future standard = @webauthwallet + @Yubico"
Why this actually matters:
Current model = one company owns hardware + software + supply chain. Single point of failure. Single point of trust.
New model = decentralized security architecture:
• Independent hardware authentication layer
• WebAuth wallet infrastructure
• Institutional-grade security without vendor lock-in
This isn't just about protecting your $ETH stack.
It's about removing the trust assumption from custody itself. If institutions are coming on-chain, they won't trust a single vendor controlling everything.
The shift: from "one secure device" to "an open security standard"
@MarshallHayner @MetallicusTDBN building the rails for the next wave.
