MPCH Enhances Hardware Wallet Backup and Recovery for Consensys

On March 19, 2025, MPCH announced that Consensys had selected and implemented Stronghold to strengthen recovery arrangements and digital-asset security. The deployment added another layer of resilience to Consensys’ existing enterprise self-custody systems.

The announcement describes Stronghold as a recovery and continuity solution for cryptographic keys, secrets, seed material and hardware signing devices. Its approach combines physical and digital controls in an offline environment, with redundancy and recovery processes designed around zero-trust and zero-knowledge principles.

The reported use case centers on protecting access to critical cryptographic material while maintaining operational continuity. Consensys’ Chief Risk Officer, Mark D. Young, described Stronghold as an improvement to the company’s existing security posture.
