Conclusions of Token2049:
- filled with bankers and memecoin scammers
- Only topic this week was Tokenization. Heard the same discussion 359 times
- Very low quality people overall
- Barely any builders, techies, OGs
- $1000 a night hotels because of F1 weekend nearly nobody cares about
- Record high air pollution because of fires in Sumatra
Yeah this was very likely the very last time I went to Token2049.
⚠️ Beware if you use a Ledger hardware wallet, especially if you bought one recently.
Based on information so far, it seems to be localized to a supply chain attack with one vendor. A small number of people probably bought fake (or tampered) Ledgers.
Ledger is one of the most secure and oldest hardware wallets in the industry. Stood the test of time. But these things happen.
I expect and know all BNB ecosystem players (and all industry) to help trace and recover the funds.
Ledger is investigating reports of loss of funds from users in South East Asia who purchased products from a reseller named CryptoBillis. As a precaution, and pending the results of our investigation, we have asked CryptoBilis to pause all sales and shipments of Ledger devices. We recommend Ledger users who purchased from this reseller in the last 90 days to not initiate set up if you have not done so yet. If you have set up your Ledger device, consider moving assets to a new Ledger signer (with new seed). We will continue to inform customers of updates as the investigation progresses.
Reach out to Ledger customer support through official channels with any questions: https://t.co/4p918UH8yb
@OpenAI It's great to see that frontier AI is now cute and cuddly instead of about to wipe out humanity. Amazing the difference a couple of weeks makes.
Tokenization is coming to America.
Thanks to the SEC’s leadership, Americans can start to reap the benefits of tokenization: instant settlement, 24/7 trading, fractionalization by default and more. It’s a good day for US innovation.
Great regulatory clarity and leadership from the SEC in the face of partisan behaviour blocking the Clarity Act. Shows have far we have come as an industry.
