Trezor Reduces Number of Resellers Following Ledger Drainage Incident

Share

Hardware manufacturer Trezor announced it has reduced the number of resellers it works with as a precautionary measure following supply-chain incidents involving competitor Ledger. The Prague-based company said it was currently checking its vendors and that no issues had been reported with Trezor devices. Ledger revealed that an unauthorized hardware implant was found in one affected user’s device, capable of reading a seedphrase when it appeared on the screen. Blockchain investigator Specter reported that $86 million had been drained from devices, while Ledger declined to confirm this figure. Additionally, Coldcard hardware wallets suffered a theft of nearly $120 million in July due to a firmware bug, and approximately 81,000 Trezor customers had their personal data leaked last month.
