Trezor discloses data breach affecting nearly 14,000 customers
Trezor has disclosed a data breach affecting nearly 14,000 customers, traced to a hack of ShipMonk, the third-party shipping and logistics provider the hardware wallet company uses. The breach originated outside Trezor's own systems.
Why this matters: People buy hardware wallets specifically because they want to keep their crypto holdings away from outside eyes. A breach like this does not touch the wallets themselves, but it tells bad actors exactly who owns one. That is a targeting list. Criminals who know you hold crypto know you are worth pressuring. The real problem here is the supply chain: Trezor did not get hacked, their shipping vendor did. Your data is only as safe as the least careful company that touches it.
