🚨Ledger just got hit by ANOTHER data breach (Jan 5, 2026)
This time through their payment processor Global e. Customer names, emails, addresses and contact info exposed. Wallets and keys are safe but phishing risk is now extremely high for anyone who recently bought from ledger
ZachXBT dropped the alert earlier today with the email proof → major clown show vibes.
This is Ledger's third major incident in recent years (2020 email leak, 2023 exploit, now this…)
Trust is basically gone for many.
Bonus fun fact from Zach: He claims he also has leaked Trezor customer databases. So maybe none of the big hardware wallet brands are truly safe with your real personal info.
His advice: Use fake details 🤣 when buying any hardware wallet from now on.
Stay paranoid, double check every email/DM claiming to be support, never share seed phrases and maybe consider air gapped or DIY solutions if you're serious

What are you guys doing sticking with Ledger, switching to Trezor/Keystone/Coldcard or going full sovereign stack?
