Hey Hivers.

This is not a cheery post like they usually are. This one, I'm hoping will help you be safer with your tokens than I was with mine.

Expensive and annoying lesson. How could I be so dumb.

I guess this is why I can't have nice things.

That day, when you go to dip into your crypto savings to find they've been swiped. Gone!

Jesus.

Its going to be very hard watching these tokens moon now.

My advice never keep your tokens on Ledger!! Ever. I knew the risk but also was not sure where a safe place to hold them would be.

Ugg.

Man that sucks! 😢 When you talk about ledger do you mean a hardware wallet? I thought those things were better than any other thing.

Yeah. Me too. Thanks.

Jesus!...someone stole your coins from a Ledger? how was that?

Such bullshit. I'm guessing it was taken from the Ledger Live app on my damaged phone. I damaged the phone very badly, the rep at best buy tried plugging it into her computer but it wouldn't respond or connect to the connection she tried. So, when I went to send it back (as warranty sent me a new phone) I didn't have a way to wipe the phone clean and I wasn't keen enough to look into it further I just sent it back as it was not really thinking of the consequences. I actually thought I needed to use the device to approve transactions with the app but apparently not.

Damn that is rough. I think crypto is going to have to work on this problem somehow. If grandma cannot use crypto easily without losing funds, how is it ever going to become mainstream?

Did you check in your ledger device? The ledger live app is only a viewer.

Yes, it doesn't show anything :(

Try Exodus wallet. It’s quite okay and easy to navigate.
Those ledgers made in China could be quite tricky!
Start accumulating more crypto slowly. It will pay off in the medium and long terms.
