TREE NEWS update: Trezor is removing certain hardware wallet resellers from its list of authorized entities starting Jan. 1, CCO Danny Sanders said, calling it a “preventative step” amid reports of tampering with rival Ledger devices. Sanders said the affected resellers had been notified of the decision. The company did not name the resellers involved.
Trezor Removes Some Resellers Over Hardware Wallet Tampering Concerns
Trezor's move is a supply-chain trust play rather than a product change: it is acting on tampering reports tied to a rival's devices, which suggests the concern is about reseller practices broadly, not any confirmed compromise of Trezor hardware. The affected parties are the unnamed resellers and, indirectly, buyers who acquired devices through unofficial channels. The open questions are whether other wallet makers tighten their authorized-seller lists and whether tampering reports extend beyond the devices already cited.
