Dormant for 4 years, 59 ETH was transferred and then stolen, prompting Ledger to urgently suspend sales
Ledger's suspension of sales means the hardware wallet in your hands may no longer be a safe. A user who had held coins for 8 years transferred 59 dormant $ETH (worth about $146,800) into a device from the affected batch and was instantly looted. We must wake up: the official emergency damage control is precisely proof that supply chain or firmware vulnerabilities do exist. 🔒
Some people think that because the device had operated safely for 8 years and the official patch has already been applied, this was just an isolated incident. But I strongly oppose this kind of lucky thinking—being precisely targeted the moment it was reactivated after 4 years of dormancy shows the latent device vulnerability is far deeper than imagined. Physical isolation does not mean foolproof security; blindly hoarding coins may instead turn you into a target. ⚠️
Next, focus on three things: first, whether the official side will publish a specific list of the affected hardware batches; second, whether the manufacturer will advance compensation for victims' losses; and third, whether the firmware update can completely block the CryptoBillis draining script. 🔍
Don't lock your assets in a plastic box that you don't even dare plug into your computer. 💥
