Treat that as a directional figure, not an audited statistic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Permanent Identifiers:<\/strong> You can reset a password, not a face. A breach of stored templates has long-lasting impact. That\u2019s why you should avoid holding them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recovery Gaps:<\/strong> Biometrics do not restore a lost phone. Wallets need a tested recovery path, such as social recovery, cloud-synced passkeys, or MPC backup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bias and False Rejects:<\/strong> Face recognition systems can perform unevenly across devices, lighting conditions, and demographic groups.
