KeepKey Wallets and Advanced Recovery Methods

We take pride in being recognized as the global leader in advanced crypto hardware wallet recovery. While most people are familiar with Trezor and Ledger, fewer know about KeepKey, which is a wallet that built its platform on the same open-source foundation as Trezor. This shared architecture is a key reason why our expertise with Trezor devices translates directly into success with KeepKey wallets.

KeepKey devices utilize a microcontroller that, much like Trezor, is susceptible to certain side-channel attacks and fault injection methods when handled by experienced professionals.

Because we have perfected techniques to gain access to Trezor hardware wallets without requiring the PIN or seed phrase, we are equally capable of applying these methods to KeepKey devices.

In one of our internal experiments, we demonstrated how an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) can be used to induce a voltage glitch on the microcontroller. This technique can, in some cases, bypass security features and provide access to protected data.

We’ve achieved successful results in controlled lab conditions using this method, and we can confirm: it looks impressive and feels like something straight out of science fiction.

However, it’s important to stress that this type of experimentation is not something we would ever perform on a client’s actual device. The risk of damaging or permanently destroying the delicate electronics inside a wallet is too high. For client recoveries, we rely on tried-and-true techniques that maximize success while minimizing risk.

Our work with KeepKey underscores the importance of both technical mastery and responsible methodology. While the videos of EMP-induced voltage glitching are exciting to watch, real-world recoveries require precision, care, and an uncompromising focus on protecting client assets. With our expertise, families and individuals can trust that even with devices like KeepKey, their digital inheritance stands the best possible chance of being recovered safely.
