Trezor is telling buyers who purchased the Safe 5 hardware wallet through CryptoBilis to move their funds after a report claimed the device contained a hardware implant. The wallet maker has not yet inspected the device, but it is treating the report as credible. $MKR

The warning puts a spotlight on supply-chain risk in hardware wallets. A device that looks sealed and legitimate can still be compromised before it reaches a user, and buyers often have no easy way to verify the full path from factory to doorstep.

Trezor's advice is clear: do not wait for a full teardown or public confirmation before securing assets. Users who bought a Safe 5 via CryptoBilis are being told to transfer funds to a wallet they trust.

The report remains unconfirmed, and Trezor has not yet examined the specific hardware. That leaves key questions open, including how the alleged implant could have been introduced and whether other devices are affected.

For now, the practical takeaway is caution. Hardware wallet buyers should verify where their device came from, check for tampering, and treat any credible supply-chain warning as a reason to move funds first and investigate later.
