In the beginning of my cryptocurrency journey, I was like many of us and invested into different projects. #Bitcoin was the north star, but I still landed among the crypto cosmos.
"Crypto" is filled with nefarious people, companies, and affiliates that like to enable God Mode. Ledger is the latest culprit. In their latest OS 2.2.1 update, 'Ledger Recover' allows trusted 3rd parties to gain access to your assets through an ID-based recovery service. I don't know who needs to hear this, but "trusted 3rd parties" ARE A SECURITY THREAT!
Ledger was a prominent hardware solution for many because they support many different cryptocurrencies. BITCOIN ONLY companies never have this problem because their ethos is VERIFY, DON'T TRUST. Ironically, every ledger nano comes with a small piece of paper that says, "Trust yourself."
So be it... Coinkite Inc. makes a #bitcoin only hardware (cold) wallet called COLDCARD. They are brilliantly advertising a 15% discount on their product to capitalize on Ledger's ridiculous misstep. Promo Code: NoKYCwSE
