In this animated story, you're Leo: a noodle seller at a Kuala Lumpur night market who bought twelve hardware wallets for his family and neighbours. Every box was sealed. Every wallet passed its authenticity check. And every one of them had a second passenger hiding behind the screen.

Leo and his family are fictional. The hack, the chip and the numbers are real (sources below).

WHAT WE KNOW (as of October 2026)
• On October 13, 2026, Ledger confirmed hidden hardware implants in wallets sold through CryptoBilis, a reseller in Southeast Asia.
• The implant read the screen during setup, decoded the 24-word recovery phrase, and sent it out over LTE using a hidden eSIM.
• Ledger says the secure element itself was not modified, so tampered devices may still pass authenticity checks.
• The thefts began around October 9, 2026. Outside analysts estimate losses of about $86M–$93M. Ledger has not confirmed a total.
• Ledger's advice: if you bought from that reseller and already set the device up, move your funds to a new wallet with a new recovery phrase. If you haven't set it up yet, don't, and contact Ledger Support.
