SECURITY BREACH ALERT 🚨
A major wallet maker is destroying 18,835 devices after hackers compromised their authentication system.
What got leaked:
• Device verification keys (fake wallets can now appear "genuine")
• 25,964 customer records
Your seed phrases are safe... for now. But here's the problem: compromised authentication means a counterfeit device could pass verification checks and drain your $BTC.
The company's response? Physically shredding nearly 19K units.
This is why hardware wallet security theater matters. If the trust layer breaks, the whole model collapses. Supply chain attacks are the silent killer in crypto.
Are they overreacting or is this the bare minimum? Either way, if you bought one of these devices, verify your source and consider rotating wallets.
