According to Cointelegraph, Ledger requested that its authorized resellers in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong remove all Ledger devices from retail shelves pending investigation. The company said the action is intended to allow investigators to determine where unauthorized tampering occurred. No timeline for the suspension or details about the suspected tampering were provided. Ledger did not specify which products are affected beyond hardware wallets. The request applies specifically to resellers in the region; Ledger’s broader operations elsewhere remain unchanged. The move aims to ensure product integrity while the investigation proceeds.
