That's why i asked ledger to delete my personal data from their servers immediately after delivery. I couldn't believe they had customer data hacked off their webshop server. What a no-go. It's impossible to compare this case to paper wallet security. A security device shouldn't get bricked too easily, imo.
I don't consider ledger products as perfect or even close, but they had the best suited and available ones at the time i decided to use a hardware wallet.

It dumbfounds me to believe anyone can trust ledger after this but then again I could never understand anyone ever adding trust into a specifically designed trustless system in the first place.

The real problem here is: There are three accounts on the (old) ledger. BTC, shitcoin1 from chain split, and shitcoin2. To send these anywhere, i have to restore the ledger in the first place. Then i can wipe/initialize it again. Now, i wouldn't call myself a Bitcoin maxi, if i would hold the shitcoins for longer, i just didn't feel the urge to sell them for BTC yet. These are small balances, too.
I doubt that it is necessarily wise to sell your shitcoins at any time other than a time in which you would like to sell them, and with any investment (or gamble) you should be ready, willing and/or able to ride out the rougher periods, and surely sometimes shitcoins are going to go down and never really come back, but that does not even necessarily mean you should sell them at a time that is anything other than your own choosing.
It was planned from the start, after gathering them. It's really not that much to make important wins out these funds anytime soon. For example, $18 or $81, i would not care and just throw all into Sats for convenience. So there was no urge to do it until date, but i should leave these coins behind at this opportunity.
I personally like Trezor.. but people who are informed about bitcoin say good things about other wallets such as passport, coldcard, jade. and maybe a few others.
These are some of the more common names in this market. I had a look on some of them already, but no real reason to buy - for now.

I have always been a bit skeptical of ledger and also the secure element being closed source, and then some of their drama coming out in the past 6 months or so they largely admitted that people are putting a lot of trust in them with the secure element.. and they are really supporting a lot of shitcoins.. sure Trezor supports some shitcoins too.. but you can set it up as bitcoin only.. I also found ledger to be quite finicky.. and have some lack of user friendliness.. including that I had one that I bricked and spent a lot of time fucking around with it causing me resentment over its lack of user-friendliness, and sure maybe they have improved, but I don't like having had those experiences.

The backing up of your seed and the ways of interacting with your coins are different.. and sure, I don't claim to be any kind of expert in the various possibilities, so maybe I should get off my high horse in terms of your earlier choice of ledger.
High horse?
I recognized your opinion just as your opinion

My thinking has always been to buy on the way down.. (if it were to happen to happen) rather than getting depressed (or worked up) about it... sure sometimes the amount of down does cause me to get even more nervous than usual, especially when I am running out of money to buy more, which does happen from time to time, so surely I can relate to being bothered by extremes.. yet I cannot relate as much merely by frustration that the BTC price is not going up as fast as we wished it would.. especially we have been here a while.. and then also from newbies who should be taking advantage of dips.. and yeah sure Paashaas is not a newbie, even though some of his latest posts have been coming off as if he has been making some bad gambling moves with his bitcoin stash.,, whatever it might be.
I don't even want to know. It's not really important (other than to Paashaas himself).
When running out of money to buy more (as of lately), i used the courage to just hodl, which is a consequence of taking part in this thread for some years. Time runs, when i think back and recognize how many years have passed since my first Bitcoin buy. My BTC-Moment

almost 10 years of bitcoin for me.. .. life before bitcoin and life after getting into bitcoin.
My 10 year anniversary in bitcoin is in May 2024. Hopefully we have an approved spot ETF by then & an ATH maybe.
I was a fresh faced mid 20’s noob back then. I have done very well from bitcoin but my God, it ages you.
I wish that we may get the ETFs just a few days before your 10 year Bitcoin anniversary and that will be the best surprise for you. You were lucky enough to get into Bitcoin world in may 2014 and even more lucky that you gained knowledge about it in those days.
Ah, the ageing part is 100% true but the fun we have with it is more enjoyable then counting the years that we have waited to see it rise. In 20's most of us were playing online multiplayer games and we were not so good at financial things but age really teach us new things and that's why we are here with Bitcoin community for Bitcoin.

Cant be ignored it might be indicating this ....
API found it..
If you've not been following the FTX trial, you really should, because the level of fraud on display is enough to even rival that of CSW. Here are two snippets of code (pictures courtesy of https://nitter.cz/molly0xFFF) which have been submitted as evidence in the trial. This code is regarding FTX's insurance fund which was widely publicized:
The first picture above shows how the value of 5,250,000 FTX Token supposedly in the insurance fund was "calculated". It wasn't. It was just coded in. insuranceFund.size = 5250000 FTT.
The second picture above shows how the value of USD in the insurance fund was "calculated". The daily trading volume on FTX was multiplied by a random number, and this was used to adjust the insurance fund to a new size.
This is the kind of bullshit centralized exchanges are using in their "proof of reserves", "safu funds", "insurance funds", "collateral funds", "1-to-1 matching reports", and all the other trash they peddle to convince you your funds are totally safe. Literal random number generators. They will do and say anything to get you to hand over your coins to them. Don't fall it.

Haha weird, but my birthday falls in May, and the surprise or gift you're considering could very well be the most remarkable birthday present. Speaking of gifts, there's a promising prospect on the horizon – the approval of a Bitcoin ETF by April 2024. This will mark my fourth year of being involved with Bitcoin, which, in its own right, feels like being an early adopter. But regardless, I can't wait to see what the future holds! for me & BTCitcoiner

10 year next month... 10 years! and without a doubt many more years to come all the way to $100.000 --> $1.000.000 --> $10.000.000.. lol. It was a belligerent journey to endure for all of us reaping the benefits well deserved.
