🎯 Hardware wallets have been tampered with, too

📰 Ledger confirms: Devices sold by reseller CryptoBilis were found to contain implanted modules; 311 wallets were robbed of about $92.9 million

💬 People keep saying “not your keys,” but it turns out the keys themselves were swapped out. Only buy hardware wallets through official channels. Don’t risk it just to save a little on a secondhand or gray-market deal—if something goes wrong, no one will compensate you.

Ledger issued a statement confirming that the recent theft of funds affected only hardware wallets sold through the third-party reseller CryptoBilis. The company stated clearly that its internal systems, official direct sales channels, and unaffected devices remain safe.

CryptoBilis has announced that it is suspending all hardware wallet sales. Ledger is working closely with law enforcement to investigate the details of this supply chain attack and is contacting affected users directly to offer assistance. The company advises CryptoBilis customers not to initialize any unused devices to prevent potential risks.

For users who have already initialized their devices, Ledger recommends transferring their assets to a new wallet created with a new recovery phrase to ensure their funds are safe. The investigation into this incident is ongoing, and Ledger will continue to share updates.

#以太坊突破2500usdt Damn, I bought ETH 8 years ago and held it all this time without selling. Then I switched to a cold wallet, and $140,000 just vanished!

The Ledger and CryptoBilis incident has brought to light another heartbreaking case.
According to on-chain tracking reports, a long-time investor who had been inactive for more than 4 years bought 59 $ETH 8 years ago.
They weathered several bull and bear cycles, holding on through huge rallies without selling and enduring the crashes too.

Those ETH are now worth around $146,800.

But just a month ago, they bought a new Ledger cold wallet from CryptoBilis, hoping to transfer their assets there and keep them safe.

They managed to avoid 8 years of market risk, only to fall victim to this wallet security incident.

After the 59 ETH were transferred, they were reportedly all taken by addresses linked to the CryptoBilis incident.

The exact attack method is still under investigation, so it’s too early to conclude that the Ledger hardware itself has a vulnerability.

They didn’t lose to the market, get liquidated on leveraged trades, or lose everything chasing shitcoins.

They just wanted to move assets they’d held for 8 years somewhere safer.

People used to say the hardest thing in crypto was holding on.

Now we’re realizing that holding on isn’t enough—you also have to make sure the place you store your coins is secure.

After 8 years of diamond hands, they may have been undone by a cold wallet they’d bought just a month earlier.

Making money in crypto isn’t easy, and keeping it safe is even harder.

I hope this incident is resolved soon, and that the victim has a chance to recover their assets.

#Ledger确认用户设备遭植入未授权硬件
Ledger confirms: Extra hardware was installed in one affected cold wallet

On October 10, Ledger updated its investigation into the CryptoBilis incident: an unauthorized hardware implant was found in a device belonging to an affected user. The day before, the company had asked the Southeast Asian distributor to suspend sales and shipments.$BTC

This development brings the investigation into the realm of physical evidence. Where in the supply chain the device was tampered with, which batches were involved, and how the implant worked all have implications for the safety of other buyers’ funds. So far, one device has been confirmed. The full attack method and its connection to the total losses are still under investigation. The reported loss of $86 million circulating online is also a third-party estimate.$ETH

The official guidance for affected buyers includes a specific instruction: devices purchased through CryptoBilis in the 90 days before the warning that have not yet been set up should not be initialized for now. Users who have already set up their devices should consider transferring their assets to a new device and using a newly generated recovery phrase.

Switching devices and importing an old recovery phrase restores the same set of accounts. If the old phrase has been exposed, the other party will still have access; changing the PIN will not solve the problem. Funds need to be transferred to accounts associated with a new recovery phrase.

People who buy a cold wallet can hardly be expected to conduct their own hardware inspection. The manufacturer needs to provide details of affected batches, practical ways to identify affected devices, and a remedy for users who have been harmed. When the sales channel fails, buyers should not be left to bear the verification costs indefinitely.

🚨ALARMING:

Ledger investigates massive hack after breach involving official distributor

Estimated thefts of $86 million (approaching $100 million) have been reported, affecting the funds of hundreds of users. The issue is not a general breach of Ledger devices. The breach is linked to CryptoBilis, an official distributor in Southeast Asia.

Urgent alert 🚨:
This mainly affects people who bought devices from this provider in the last 90 days. They are suspected of having been tampered with before delivery.
If you are an affected user, take action: move your cryptocurrency immediately to a secure, clean wallet.

#ledgerpausescryptobilissales 🚨 $92.9 MILLION LEDGER-LINKED THEFT: TETHER FREEZES $10M USDT!
A major crypto security incident is raising concerns after on-chain investigators traced approximately $92.9 million in suspected losses linked to Ledger hardware wallets purchased through Southeast Asian reseller CryptoBilis.
🔍 1️⃣ Losses Reach 311 Wallets
According to blockchain analytics firm Bitquery, the estimated losses affected 311 wallets across five networks: TRON, Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Polygon. The figure exceeds earlier estimates of approximately $86 million as investigators identified additional affected addresses.
🔒 2️⃣ Tether Freezes $10 Million
Tether froze approximately $10 million in USDT across 20 addresses linked to the incident. This action restricts the movement of those specific tokens, but it does not mean the funds have already been returned to victims.
⚠️ 3️⃣ The Investigation Continues
Blockchain researchers continue tracking funds moving through different wallets, exchanges, and cross-chain services. Some assets have reportedly been converted into other cryptocurrencies, making recovery more complicated.
Ledger has asked CryptoBilis to suspend sales and shipments while it investigates. The company has also issued security guidance for affected customers. However, the exact cause of the incident and the final confirmed losses have not been established.
🛡️ 4️⃣ What Crypto Users Should Learn
This incident highlights the importance of supply-chain security. Buying a hardware wallet from a trusted source, protecting your recovery phrase, and checking official security notices are essential precautions.#CryptoBilis #TetherFreezesUSDTLinkedToLedgerTheft #USDT #CryptoSecurity

Ledger’s latest wallet incident is not mainly a software story. It is a supply-chain story.

#Ledger confirmed that one affected device contained an unauthorized hardware implant after reports of losses tied to devices sold by Southeast Asian reseller #CryptoBilis . The company asked the reseller to pause sales and shipments while it investigates.

That changes the practical lesson. A #hardware wallet only removes exchange and browser #Risk if the device itself is trusted. Anyone who recently bought through that reseller should not initialize it. If it has already been used, Ledger’s guidance is to move funds to a fresh device using a newly generated recovery phrase, not the old seed.

The important boundary is provenance: buy directly or from a currently verified channel, inspect packaging and device integrity, and treat any pre-initialized or modified unit as compromised. Self-custody is only as strong as the hardware supply chain.

The Ledger theft is nearing $93 million, and Tether has stepped in to freeze $10 million—but the hackers may have already moved the rest! 😱

Hey everyone, there are new developments in the Ledger and CryptoBilis incident.

According to on-chain tracking reports from Bitquery and others, the stolen assets are now estimated at $92.9 million, spread across 311 wallet addresses!

The affected assets are spread across multiple chains, including BTC, ETH, TRON, BNB Chain, and Polygon.

The good news is that Tether has frozen funds at the relevant addresses. On-chain records show that around $10 million in USDT is involved.

But here’s the problem.

Of the $93 million in losses, only around $10 million has been reported frozen so far. What about the nearly 90% that remains?

Worse still, tracking reports indicate that around $15 million was converted into other stablecoins, while some ETH was sent through mixers.

The hackers clearly aren’t going to leave the money sitting there for everyone to freeze.

This freeze is a positive development, but based on the information disclosed so far, there’s still a long way to go before most of the stolen assets are recovered.

This incident is another reminder that stablecoin issuers’ ability to freeze funds can help recover stolen assets, but it can’t cover every stolen asset, including BTC and ETH.

What I’ll be watching most closely is whether more funds connected to the case can be frozen—and whether the frozen assets will ultimately be returned to compensate victims.

$93 million stolen, $10 million frozen—how much money will the victims actually get back?

The most heartbreaking thing about crypto is that when you’re making money, you have to battle the market; when your money gets stolen, you have to race the hackers too. 😭

80 BTC in a hardware wallet were stolen—this is heartbreaking!
#Ledger hardware wallets may have been stolen in a large-scale theft.
On-chain tracking shows asset losses of over $86 million.
One of the wallet addresses
activated a Ledger wallet a week ago and transferred in 80 $BTC .
Now, assets worth more than $6 million have mysteriously disappeared.
Ledger issued an official announcement:
Hardware wallets purchased through Southeast Asian distributor #CryptoBilis may be at risk.
The exact amount of losses and the cause of the attack have not yet been confirmed,
but this incident is once again a wake-up call for everyone in crypto.

A hardware wallet does not mean absolute security
Many people think that if they put BTC in a hardware wallet,
and keep their private keys offline, their assets are safe.
But the security of a hardware wallet depends not only on the device itself,
but also on where it was purchased, how it was initialized, and how its recovery phrase was generated and stored.
If a device is tampered with somewhere in the supply chain,
or its recovery phrase is exposed during generation,
then keeping it offline afterward still won't protect the assets.
A hardware wallet is just one part of a security system, not an all-purpose safe.
If someone offers you a hardware wallet, be extremely cautious.

Keeping assets on an exchange
means taking on risks related to the platform's operations, custody, and account security.
Managing your own private keys
means taking sole responsibility for risks involving your device, recovery phrase, backups, and user error.
Self-custody is not risk-free. When you take control of your assets,
you also take full responsibility for keeping them secure.
#钱包安全 is one of the most fundamental and important questions for crypto users.

How can crypto users protect their assets?
① When buying a hardware wallet, always use an official channel.
Buy through the official website. Never use a pre-supplied recovery phrase, and never share your recovery phrase with a third party.
② For hot wallets or wallet apps,
always download them from the official website to avoid phishing wallets.
③ Isolate the risks associated with large holdings.
Don't keep all your assets in one wallet or under a single recovery phrase; manage them separately.

Compared with other losses, having a wallet stolen is more devastating and harder to accept.
Even if you avoid chasing market pumps and crashes, stay away from leveraged contracts, and don't make high-risk trades,
and proactively choose a safer way to store your assets, you can still be caught off guard.
You may not know where things went wrong,
and years of accumulated assets can be stolen—a pain that's almost impossible to bear.
