🚨 $90M HARDWARE WALLET SCARE: Tether Freezes Millions 🚨

Self-custody just received a massive wake-up call as Tether steps in to freeze stolen USDT linked to compromised Ledger units.

Here is the breakdown:
1️⃣ The Vector: Unauthorized hardware modifications were tied back to unauthorized third-party reseller channels (CryptoB$ilis in SE Asia).
2️⃣ The Damages: Losses are approaching roughly $90 million across targeted accounts.
3️⃣ Tether's Intervention: Tether took action to freeze millions in stolen $USDT at attacker-controlled addresses.
4️⃣ Ledger's Action: Sales through the involved reseller have been officially halted pending ongoing investigations.

🔑 Essential Self-Custody Rules:
• Never purchase hardware wallets from unauthorized third parties or unsealed discount retailers.
• Never enter your 24-word seed phrase on a computer, phone, or website.
• Always verify firmware signatures directly inside the official desktop app.

Centralized freezes saved the funds, but does this violate the true ethos of crypto?
