OneKey Founder Yishi Wang: AI Cut a Full Supply-Chain Attack Chain to Two Weeks

OneKey founder Yishi Wang said his security team Anzen Labs built a complete USB supply-chain attack chain using AI with one engineer over two weeks, work that previously took two to three senior researchers about two months. In an interview, Wang also detailed the $1.5 billion Bybit hack, tracing it to malware planted in Safe’s official frontend after a Lazarus social-engineering breach of one engineer’s computer, combined with blind signing on a Ledger device.

AI take

The productivity asymmetry here is the real signal: a single engineer compressing a multi-researcher, multi-month hardware supply-chain attack into two weeks lowers the barrier for well-resourced actors far more than for defenders. Pairing that with the Bybit post-mortem is telling — the described failure points were a compromised official frontend and blind signing on a hardware wallet, not broken cryptography. Whether the security industry's review and signing practices adapt faster than offensive tooling proliferates is the open question.
