Ledger Halts Reseller Sales in Seven Asian Markets Over Tampered Wallets
• Oct 13: Ledger asked resellers in Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia and Hong Kong to pause sales and pull devices.
• It confirmed LTE-enabled implants in CryptoBilis-sold units that sent recovery phrases out; losses may exceed $86M.
• Ledger says its own systems and direct sales are untouched, but MediaMarkt pulled stock and Trezor trimmed resellers.
Supply-chain tampering is the real risk: buy hardware wallets only from the maker's own store. Not financial advice. DYOR.
