I’ve tested out 6 Ledger hardware wallets over the years. 2 nanoS 4 nanoX 1 nanoS screen is now completely broke and won’t render the GUI 1 nanoX just gave me a “battery no longer charges” error and then upon using it again just performed a factory reset (presumably wiping the seed) without asking. 33% failure rate is pretty fucking unacceptable with ledger. I’m not using these devices actively even. Just remember to backup in metal folks… I was trying to get some manufacturer resiliency by using Coldcard and Ledger for a multisig, but I’m done with ledger after multiple PII leaks and critical HWW malfunctions Just a PSA I guess…
