Ledger asks resellers to halt sales in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong

The significance here is less about any single device than about the reseller channel itself, which sits outside Ledger's direct control and is now the focal point of a tampering probe. That distinction matters for buyers in the affected markets, who typically rely on third-party sellers for availability, and it puts pressure on how hardware wallets are authenticated once they leave the manufacturer. Whether the investigation narrows the compromise to specific resellers or points to a broader supply-chain gap is the open question, and the absence of scope or timing details leaves that unresolved.
