Blink services are back online. The vulnerability behind the incident has been fixed and verified, and access has been restored for all unaffected accounts. If your account was not affected, you can continue as usual.
Accounts of affected users will remain locked temporarily.
Non-custodial balances were never affected.
A full post-mortem will follow. Thank you for your patience.
I don't think being immune to security incidents is the reason to self custody. Plenty of examples of self custody solutions losing funds to vulnerabilities lately. I'm with you on the sentiment, but everyone should be careful right now, whether they self custody or not.

For this reason, you have to avoid custodial wallets. Thanks for sharing

Fair enough, nothing's immune, custody hands over the keys and self-custody keeps them. If it fails, at least it's yours
