I mean the hack doesn't really affect me. Sure they have my address, but they have no idea how much crypto I have. Besides, I carry a gun on me 100% of the time I am outside my home, and whenever I am in my home there is always a gun within arms reach.

I'd enjoy being able to score some free kills on anyone trying to steal my crypto. I doubt I'd ever be a target for anything other than phishing though since I my total crypto is ~5k at the moment. Rest of my worth is stocks and real estate.

GDPR would categorise this as the highest level of breach as it contains sufficient personal data to ID specific individuals, AND the nature of the leak directly threatens the safety and freedoms of those affected. Under GDPR ledger would have had to have notified their data authority within 24 hours of being made aware of this breach. If any anon has evidence that they were told of this breach and did not act immediately, they are on the hook big time.

Please don’t do this. Don’t try to come up with your security protocol that’s better than what Xperia have agreed on.

It’s safe to buy a ledger now more than ever since they definitely audited their network recently. Just follow the regular instructions on How to store your crypto in a hardware wallet with your safe seed backups. It’s cheap and easy and the best compromise and balance of safety, usability and recoverability.

BIP-39 hardware wallet
Laminated seed phrase written on paper(all paper is acid free and good quality in the US) with pencil and put it in a tamper proof envelope, keep two copies in different places in a locked drawer

Have your pin and pass phrase set up in other places.

Some of the higher IQ burglars will check the ledger list before targeting a house so they know what to be on the lookout for, that said even if they steal the ledger (and your playstation lol) they can't do anything with it without the pin or seed, so I would expect they'd just ransom it back for a set amount to try to get more money out of the victim.

Other burglars will just check the addresses for people in their target area who might be stealthmoding as poorfags while actually having a bit of money. Owning a hardware wallet indicates not only the money to buy and hold crypto, but also some foresight to protect it, meaning they're even more likely to have nice things.

I myself am stealth-moding. I'm not on the list but if I were, I'd move immediately, breaking my current lease. I'd also consider changing my legal name just so people going the extra mile can't target me based on public records. Life is different when you're holding significantly more than a make it stack.

>>25018239
I dunno, I still have the electrum exe because I save everything, so I expect to be able to regenerate the wallet no matter what and get the private keys if nothing else. If you're worried about it you should probably display and write down the raw private key somewhere safe just like you would with a seed phrase, so that you can just plug it into bitcoin core and go from there if need be. Don't forget, the whole point of a seed phrase is that it's easier to memorize than a raw private key, so if you're not going to memorize it you might as well also write the raw private key on paper too (a separate piece of paper, obviously).

You generate a random key on the device. If someone can guess a key phrase then more than everyone is screwed. These guys got no hits on the ledger bait that’s been around for three months so they are giving the list away. It’s costs too much money to sms people, 3-5c per message. I strongly doubt that the actual key generation tech would be compromised as ledger isn’t even in charge of that. Anything could happen, even with paper wallets.

If you feel queasy about that site (I don't blame you) you can check the better known:
https://haveibeenpwned.com/

Just scroll down to see the list of sites your email has been leaked from.

joke is on you I am an apartment cuck.

I'm just gonna convert a Nano S to a dummy one. I'm gonna fill it with something useless like shitcoins, then I'll fill a passphrase wallet with some XRP (also a shitcoin but a believable one) and go from there so if they torture me, they can have 1000 dollars of ripple.

I am thinking maybe I should move though...

The ledger software verifies the device when you plug it in. Someone would have to compromise their hardened chips to clone the device.

So much fucking fear mongering LMAO

We live in a world where everyone knows everything about everybody. People are so delusional they willingly post their children online on social media. And some make it fucking public.

You can easily look someone up, look up their net worth, look up how much they own, look up their known associates, their home address, their phone number, email, AND YOU CAN DO IT FOR FUCKING FREE!

I mean, fuck! I can get good pictures of your home address by just going on google maps. People can literally map out how to find you.

The fact of the matter is that criminals that are stupid tend to do stupid things, and tend to get physical, and these kinds of criminals arent even going to be in the crypto space to begin with, dumb niggers dont give a fuck about crypto right now and never heard of a ledger.

The criminals that do know about crypto are going to try to scam you from the comfort of their own abode, they sure as fuck arent going to want to leave their chair and fly on over to the nearest human settlement and start trying every ledger home address when they dont even know how much crypto you really own.

The cost-benefit ratio doesnt add up to physically get out of the chair and abandon what they do best (phish and scam) to try to break into someone's home and steal their ledger, which they need the pass phrase anyway to get into.

This is a nothingburger in the long run especially if you do what you should be doing if your info is leaked (changing your email and phone number)
