	abstract = {<p>We derive a device-independent quantum key distribution protocol based on synchronous correlations and their Bell inequalities. This protocol offers several advantages over other device-independent schemes including symmetry between the two users and no need for preshared randomness. We close a \&quot;synchronicity\&quot; loophole by showing that an almost synchronous correlation inherits the self-testing property of the associated synchronous correlation. We also pose a new security assumption that closes the \&quot;locality\&quot; (or \&quot;causality\&quot;) loophole: an unbounded adversary with even a small uncertainty about the users\&$\#$39; choice of measurement bases cannot produce any almost synchronous correlation that approximately maximally violates a synchronous Bell inequality.</p>},
