Ledger Theft Tops $93 Million After Weeks of Wallet Preparation

Ledger-linked wallets lost about $93.4 million across seven blockchains after attackers spent weeks testing transfers, approvals and automated fund movements, intensifying concerns about a possible supply-chain compromise. The losses affected 471 addresses, with most of the activity occurring Oct. 9. Tron-based wallets accounted for about $69.98 million in USDT losses, while Bitcoin-related losses reached $17.59 million. The affected wallets ranged from several days old to more than five years old. Ledger is investigating users in Southeast Asia who bought devices through CryptoBilis and has told the distributor to halt Ledger sales and shipments.
