Crypto Briefing reports that security concerns have been raised after allegations surfaced claiming a $2.5 million fund theft from cryptocurrency hardware wallet manufacturer Ledger's wallets. An anonymous user, anchor_drops, claimed to have lost 10 BTC (worth $1 million) and $1.5 million worth of NFTs due to the hack. The cryptocurrency community speculates that a long-standing vulnerability in Ledger products may be connected to the incident, but Ledger has yet to make an official statement. This news follows a string of previous security concerns surrounding Ledger hardware wallets, including a 2020 incident where over 9,000 Ledger Nano X wallets were compromised, and a 2021 report that highlighted vulnerabilities in Ledger's software. As a result of these concerns, some experts recommend using alternative hardware wallets or taking additional security measures, such as storing cryptocurrency assets in offline cold storage. The situation is still developing, and more information is expected to be released in the coming days.
