No silver bullet but many of these types of attacks would be mitigated, or at least made much more expensive and difficult for the attackers, if we had wider adoption of Yubikey, Webauthn etc. type otp solutions which are more resistant to phishing, keyloggers etc.

In practice, what are the barriers to adoption which folks are seeing, and what can we do about it?

This is a great question.

I think the biggest barrier to adoption is lack of end user demand for the service. That is followed by people not understanding/believing the incredible increase in user experience and security. It's almost like people think it is too good to be true.
