A leak of crypto cold storage wallet manufacturer Ledger’s customer database has put over a quarter of a million Bitcoin and altcoin investors<\/a> at serious risk. Some have had accounts drained, while others have experienced extreme threats of harm directed to their families and homes.<\/p>\n

The situation sheds a light on a serious issue plaguing the cryptocurrency industry, and that issue is personal data privacy and security. As investors are now encouraged to put as much effort into personal data security as they do in protecting their assets, the fact that KYC is enforced on cryptocurrency exchanges means that this risk will never completely disappear. Here’s why KYC could be the source of the next major leak.<\/p>\n

Not Your Keys, Not Your Bitcoin. Not Your Personal Data, Either<\/h2>\n

Even new crypto investors understand the importance of keeping cryptocurrencies off of exchanges and moving them into cold storage for safe-keeping<\/a>. Ledger, a cold storage manufacturer offers solutions to serve this need for digital asset safety and security.<\/p>\n

By moving Bitcoin and altcoins offline to a device not connected to the internet, digital assets are safely stored and out of the reach of cybercriminals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But what Ledger users are now learning, is that although cybercriminals can’t touch the crypto stored on the device, real-world criminals can use private and personal data extracted from Ledger’s customer database to threaten physical harm if Bitcoin and other assets aren’t promptly turned over.<\/p>\n
