Airport-bought Ledger Flex hardware wallet found with spy implant, raising security concerns.

A Ledger Flex hardware wallet purchased at an airport was found to contain a spy implant, according to Karpelès. The retailer Metapod sold the compromised device, adding to worries about supply-chain security for hardware wallets. Ledger confirmed that verified fund losses are linked to wallets sold by CryptoBilis, with implants capable of transmitting recovery phrases over LTE. This highlights two issues: tampering of Ledger Flex wallets from Metapod and ongoing investigations into CryptoBilis-related devices.

The report on a compromised Ledger Flex hardware wallet is presented with Pluang's cryptocurrency market data as context. As of Oct 13, 2026 15:21 WIB, out of 50 major cryptocurrencies priced on Pluang, 7 rose and 42 fell. Notable movers include COMP at Rp424.242 with a 1-day change of -4.93%, AVAX at Rp187.490 down 4.87%, and ADA at Rp4.291 down 4.86%.
