Singapore police: tampered Ledgers surfaced September 10

The September 10 timeline is the detail that matters: tampered Ledger devices were circulating locally well before the issue gained wider notice, which shifts the story from a product flaw to a supply-chain integrity problem with a detection lag. That lag is what affects self-custody holders who rely on retail or secondary distribution channels, where provenance is hardest to verify. Separately, Korea's expected fourth delay of its crypto tax law reinforces how many jurisdictions keep deferring formal taxation even as enforcement concerns like this mount. Whether other jurisdictions report similar device tampering, and whether Korea's delay holds, are the open questions.
