🚨 There is information that approximately 86 million USD in crypto has been stolen from Ledger cold wallets. This is not a widespread attack but rather targets specific wallets.
Initially, there were rumors that the incident was related to phishing via email. However, there are now signs indicating that the matter involves a Ledger retailer, as Ledger has just issued the following statement:
“Ledger is investigating reports of asset losses from users in Southeast Asia who purchased devices through the retailer CryptoBillis.
To mitigate risks during the investigation, we have requested that CryptoBillis suspend all sales and device distribution activities for Ledger.
We advise those who have purchased Ledger devices from this retailer within the past 90 days:
If the device has not yet been set up, do not proceed with installation.
If the device has been set up and used, consider transferring all assets to a new Ledger device with a completely new 24-word recovery seed phrase.
Ledger will continue to provide updates as the investigation yields further results.”#SolanaPlansToCutBlockTimesTo200ms #ReusedBitcoinAddressesHold4.33MBTC #SenBlumenthalProbesCantorFitzgeraldTetherTies #NEW #NewsAboutCrypto
