Ledger wallet attack risk: hackers may steal seed phrases and wait to drain Bitcoin later.

A potential supply-chain attack on Ledger hardware wallets could expose users' seed phrases to hackers. The attackers might implant a program that transmits the seed phrase but delay stealing funds until the user accumulates a larger Bitcoin balance. This means theft could happen well after initial exposure, as attackers wait for more Bitcoin to be added before emptying the wallet. The risk highlights the importance of securing recovery phrases, as access and fund theft may occur at different times.

The Ledger supply-chain attack risk is presented here with Pluang's market data for context. As of Oct 16, 2026 01:02 WIB, 25 of 50 major cryptocurrencies on Pluang rose while 24 fell. Notable movers include CRV at Rp6.481 with a 1-day change of +8.69%, EOS at Rp12.649 up 8.13%, and XTZ at Rp5.785 rising 4.74%.
