【Market Flash】The money wasn’t lost on an exchange—it was lost in hardware wallets touted as the safest option. That’s this year’s most expensive lesson: related losses totaled about $241 million. A Coldcard firmware flaw weakened seed phrase randomness, and more than 1,800 BTC were drained remotely; Ledger Nano devices sold by a reseller were backdoored, leading to nearly another $100 million in losses. The core chains weren’t breached—the vulnerabilities were in firmware, batches, and distribution channels. The self-custody model of relying on a single manufacturer, a single device, and a single backup has been shattered. Multisig across multiple vendors isn’t a hassle; it’s a way to diversify trust. Would you still bet everything on one wallet? Comment 1 if you’re already using multisig; comment 2 if you still rely on a single device.
