Trezor says it will cut the number of companies allowed to resell its hardware wallets. The company called the move a precaution. It follows reports that malicious implants were installed in devices made by its competitor, Ledger.
Trezor's chief commercial officer, Danny Sanders, said he had told certain resellers that they would be taken off Trezor's list of authorized sellers. The removals start in January. Cointelegraph reported the news on Oct 13, 2026.
The reports are about Ledger devices, not Trezor's. The report does not say how many resellers are affected or which ones. It also does not say how the implants got into the Ledger devices or how many devices were involved.
For someone already holding a perpetual futures position on Bitget, Bybit, MEXC or OKX, this changes nothing directly. The story does not mention any of these exchanges, funding rates, trading fees or market liquidity. It is about where hardware wallets are sold, not about what it costs to hold a perp.
