It doesn't necessarily mean that the development of hardware wallet support or any other feature has stopped though.
As for the guy losing his money and in all honesty, It's clearly his fault. A computer with a desktop wallet = vulnerable, everyone knows that. If he wasn't willing to invest less then 100$ in a hardware wallet when he had 500k then when was he planning to do so?
Ok Ok very nice from you, thanks for taking your Time! Yeah its true that is to 100% his fault, but i think if it was already compatible, it would be a catalyst to adopt more comfortable.
I think it was just to convenient.
But i am sure and confident that one day Exodus will bring that compatibility out because it is no other option in the future then adding it.
The question is only in how much time.
Thank you again for taking your time to gather those informations
