Security Incidents

In March 2024, Ledger discovered a vulnerability in the microcontroller that could bypass firmware integrity checks. Trezor patched the issue, with no user funds compromised or action required.

A crypto user claims they lost $2.5 million in Bitcoin and NFTs from a Ledger Nano S, sparking scrutiny over Ledger's security. While the user insists the seed phrase was secure, the incident has reignited debate over hardware wallet vulnerabilities and possible user error.
