    Don’t sign up for the service. The wallet has never been hacked. Why give your keys to a third party?

    Using the ledger recover service still requires the user to allow access to the private key by pressing both buttons on the device as part of its setup. Something we dont have to do

      That’s what they say. The main issue is that Ledger lied.
      Originally they said: The firmware cannot extract your private key.
      Now, it can.
      What else are they hiding?

    Can you be sure about your seed being truly random and not pre generated when using trezor, ledger,coldcard or any other wallets ?

    • @cyberscrilla
      @cyberscrilla  7 месяцев назад +3

      Yes. Especially with a wallet like Trezor which is completely open source so you can confirm how the keys are generated.
      Most cold wallets use a hardware random number generator with a true random number generator to generate private keys.
      The seed phrase is then derived from the private key.

      I don't think they have access to seeds just because they offered a recovery system, they have a name in the market and there would be no reason to do anything to steal from someone and get dirty in a market that is getting bigger every day. I'm not defending them and just an opinion, I've used it in the past, today I have the tangem without seed phrase and I'm very satisfied

      Unless there is activity going on in your wallet that you didn’t approve, it can be hard to determine if your wallet has been compromised.
      1Inch is just as secure as MetaMask, they are both hot wallets.

    We trusted Ledger when we used it while it is not open source. They could have been already able to do whatever they please without us knowing even before the seed recovery service. My lesson from this experience with Ledger is that my next wallet has to be 100% open source. If I want something to trust, then the whole point of self custody is meaningless.

    I bought my Ledger nano s wallet from Ladger in France, completely closed and never opened. I changed the 24 word key by resetting it when empty. I transferred my coins to the wallet. Transfers were made from my wallet when I did not have any physical connection to my Ledger nano S wallet and when I did not even turn on the PC. I saw that my coins were stolen and this person is ledger himself.
    So the person who stole it had no device, no pin, no 24 security words, but he managed to transfer my money. This company is not reliable. Stolen coins are in the pictures

      Define safe. In terms of security. I’d say yes. The main concern with most people is you don’t know the seed phrase.
      This is actually a security feature. In terms of durability, the cards and chip inside is made to last 25 years. That’s why it comes with a 25 year product replacement warranty.

      Access is the problem.. signing up for the service just gives them legal right to share it. But that doesn’t mean they don’t already have access. A simple firmware update gives them access technically speaking.. whether you use the recovery service or not.
