Pretty smooth upgrade last night, but we hit some issues with KBFS this morning. KBFS will be in read-only mode until Merkle Trees are rebuilt. Might take up to 24 hours. Thanks for your patience.

Keybase app for iOS is now updated in the app store. Update to get a fix for TLS connection issues. All apps are again fully operational. One last thing: those on macOS or Windows v6.2.4 should manually upgrade to 6.2.5 via reinstall from Keybase.io.

The macOS and Windows versions we rushed out last night (v6.2.4) has an updater with the old (expired) root CA, so automated updates off of v6.2.4 will fail. Only a manual update can fix this issue. Thanks for your patience, and Happy New Year!

Updated Android app available via Google Play store. Updated Linux app available from your package managers as usual. They should both work now. We're waiting on Apple to review and approve the iOS app, and then all versions should be fixed.

Looks for updated iOS, Android and Linux apps to be released soon. Get them via app stores (or package managers) as normal.

(BTW, the root cause of the outage was that the root CA we ship with the Keybase client expired after 10 years of valiant service. We have some internal dependencies on Keybase working, so recovery was complicated.)

Windows app released with fix. As with macOS, the updater won't work, so you'll need to download a new app from Keybase.io. KBFS is back up and running.

Small update: macOS builds are working again, but the updater is busted, for the same reason the app stopped working. So re-download Keybase from Keybase.io and reinstall. We're working on the other apps as fast as we can. Also, KBFS is still down.

New @KeybaseIO release with sweet oft-requested features: custom emojis, and crypto functions (encrypt/decrypt/verify/sign) on mobile. Amazing work as always by this team!

That was something, Several @cosmos block explorers out of nowhere started sourcing their avatars from keybase, keyed by bottom 8 bytes of PGP key IDs, even though they know keybase profile names. Not a traffic pattern we were expecting!

Keybase users, lock down your account!🔒In "lockdown mode", all security-sensitive features require an authorized device, and are unavailable on the Web site. Like 2FA, but no fumbling for a 6-digit code. keybase.io/docs/lockdown/ind…
