PSA the ledger incident isn't limited to Asia
This is a device purchased in store from an official reseller in Europe (a legitimate device doesn't have any of these cables as can be seen in picture 2)
This even seems to be an old version of the 'spy implant' even though the device was purchased a couple of weeks ago. The newer versions usually hide the implant by the screen so it's easier to miss
What's interesting is that this compromised ledger never transfered funds to an exploiter. Either the device didn't work or they were waiting for a more widespread usage of the comprised devices?
If you own a ledger that didn't directly come from the ledger online store make sure to not just rely on the software genuinely check by ledger but to actually open up the ledger yourself to make sure its original, again there are reported cases in Asia, south America and now Europe as well.
@MagicalTux made some useful videos on how to open the ledger and what to look for.
Since this @zachxbt post:
• Coldcard - a Bitcoin hardware wallet, was hacked for $40 million.
• Trezor - one of the largest cold wallets, experienced a major data leak.
• SafePal - one of the largest cold wallets, experienced a major data leak.
• Ledger - the largest cold wallet, got exploited for $86M through a third-party reseller.
It's joever.
According to this model, the downside risk of buying bitcoin today is -23% and the potential upside return is +650%.
🟪 Resistance: $635,000
🟩 Fair value: $183,000
🟥 Support: $65,000
This is the easiest decision of your life.
#IAmNotAVillain has today made strong statements directed at Italy and at alleged civil servants who are selling their access to the public administration! 🤦♂️
Bitget CEO @GracyBitget went live after the hack to address the damage and what happens next.
And some dude in the chat asked if she was single 😭
“Yes I’m single but this doesn’t concern you”
LMAOOOO
