Hackers steal up to $93.2 million through tampered Ledger devices

Ledger is investigating reports of $86 million in stolen cryptocurrency. The company confirmed that the issue originated from an approved reseller named Crypto Bilis. Extra components were secretly added inside the physical hardware devices so they could be hacked. BitQuery estimates that the total losses linked to the tampered devices are $93.2 million. "there's evidence that the physical devices were tampered with by someone at this third party. They put something in there that allowed the devices to be hacked." Even offline vaults are only as safe as the hands that packed them.
