Inscriptions first took off earlier this year on the Bitcoin network. Now they are popping up on more than a dozen other smaller blockchains, pushing up transaction fees and in some cases, bogging down networks https://t.co/iSxkwadmfE

We are 100% focused on following up to last week’s security incident, making sure incidents like this are prevented in the future, and that the ecosystem remains safe.
We are aware of approximately $600k in assets impacted, stolen from users blind signing on EVM DApps.
Ledger will make sure victims affected will be made whole, and are committing to work with the DApp ecosystem to allow Clear Signing, and no longer allow Blind Signing with Ledger devices by June 2024.

We affirm our CEO & Chairman @_pgauthier’s promise https://t.co/6ScBNshwvV to make sure victims who had their assets stolen on Dec 14th, 2023 by the attacker together with angel drainer are made whole, including users who are not Ledger customers.
We commit, by any way possible, including gestures of goodwill, to make sure this is done by the end of February, 2024. We are already in contact with many impacted users and are actively working through the specifics with them.
We remind users that if you signed a transaction on affected DApps Dec 14th, 2023, best security practices would recommend revoking any authorized transactions to further reduce impact from the malicious code.
We are announcing that by June 2024, users will no longer be able to Blind Sign with Ledger devices. Our commitment is to work with the community and DApp ecosystem to allow Clear Signing so users can verify all transactions on Ledger devices before signing. This will lead to a new standard to protect users and encourage Clear Signing across DApps.
Front-end attacks have happened many times before and will continue to plague our ecosystem. The only foolproof countermeasure for this type of attack is to always verify what you consent to on your device.
This is only possible with Clear Signing: meaning you can see and verify exactly what you sign on a secure display.
If the ecosystem continues to allow Blind Signing, users remain at risk.
We ask DApp developers to support the Clear Signing security brick. Please reach out to us through our Developer portal (https://t.co/KGfFIuQFAs) or Discord (https://t.co/wAsoun1Xlh) so we can work together to add Clear Signing to your DApp.
We have detailed the cause of this hack and our security team’s response to this in a Ledger Connect Kit Incident Report on our Ledger tech and security blog:

We remind you your Ledger devices and Ledger Live have always been secure to use, and were not made vulnerable by this exploit.
If you believe you may have been affected by the attack, please reach out via our Ledger Help Center to find out more:

As I got through this process of documenting everything I pack for El Salvador, down to the guitar pick, I am filled with absolute inconsolable rage at the state of the US Southern border.
First, the US/Mex border is a joke.
Second, El Salvador should make me sign a proof showing I have at least 1 Bitcoin (or 0.5, or whatever) and a proof of income, plus a crim background check, then get the hell out of my way.
I'm a senior technologist, Bitcoin-only, and desirable in any country but especially El Salvador. The desire for compliance and professional services, due to restrictive practices, means I hire MORE Americans and LESS Salvadorans to assure my compliance.
This process is completely ass backwards.
Give me an essay assignment, but please remove this item-by-item compliance bullshit that generates little money, much animosity, and some resentment among new expats. Reform Aduanas. Make it retroactive. The amount of harm this process is doing to new ES migrants is small relative to the economy, but it's def making me thing twice about investing in any sort of tech business that requires skills to be imported. @nayibbukele
