Global Self-Custody Alert
#Ledger Freezes Official Distributor After $87 Million Theft Linked to Supply Chain
Ledger Support has issued an emergency statement confirming an ongoing investigation into the massive loss of funds in Southeast Asia. Initial on-chain analyses and intelligence tracking reveal a devastating financial impact that has already reached nearly $87 million.
Origin of the Breach: Reports point to devices purchased through authorized distributor CryptoBilis. A possible supply chain attack is under investigation (physical interception and tampering before delivery to the customer, or alteration of the devices’ firmware).
Financial Impact ($86.96M+ in Losses): According to Arkham Intelligence on-chain data under the ledger user theft label (which groups 98 compromised addresses), the stolen funds total $86,964,156, primarily broken down as follows:
#Ethereum #ETH : $42.15 million (16,843 ETH).
#bitcoin #BTC : $17.56 million (211.19 BTC).
Tether (USDT): $16.50 million.
USDD: $10.52 million.
Immediate Preventive Measure: Ledger has ordered CryptoBilis to suspend all sales and shipments of its hardware wallets effective immediately while official investigations proceed.
Security Protocol for Affected Users
If you purchased a device through CryptoBilis in the last 90 days
If you have NOT set it up yet: DO NOT turn it on or begin the setup process.
If you HAVE set it up and added funds: Move your assets immediately to a secure wallet or a new device, generating a new recovery phrase (seed phrase).
