Ledger CEO clashes with ex-Mt. Gox boss over $90M wallet thefts

Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier has publicly clashed with former Mt. Gox chief Mark Karpelès over warnings about modified hardware wallets linked to an estimated $90 million in cryptocurrency thefts.　　In an October 17 exchange on X, Karpelès questioned whether the wallet manufacturer had communicated the danger of sophisticated spying implants clearly enough before customers reported losses involving devices sold through Southeast Asian reseller CryptoBilis. Gauthier defended Ledger‘s security work and challenged the former exchange executive’s criticism.　　Correction: I said @Ledger didnt talk about the implant situation at all despite knowing about it – they did publish an academy topic in March 2026 that talks about it and recommends buying direct or from Authorized Resellers.https://t.co/UUNH1H2L3D pic.twitter.com/UNrxyLnsmd　　— Mark Karpelès (@MagicalTux) October 17, 2026　　The dispute followed the discovery of unauthorized electronics inside a genuine Ledger device. Investigators found that the additional hardware could capture a wallets 24-word recovery phrase during setup and transmit it through a cellular connection.　　Research estimates place the suspected losses above $90 million. Ledger has not established that figure as a final verified total, and Karpelèss claim that earlier warnings could have prevented those losses remains unproven.　　Ledger CEO disputes Karpelèss criticism of wallet warnings　　The disagreement began with Karpelès questioning Ledgers earlier communication

Claude unpicks an NSA mystery behind Ethereum passkey security

Anthropic said on Oct. 16 that Claude had helped reconstruct the public seed behind P-256, a NIST-standardized cryptographic curve supported for Ethereum passkey signing. The finding gives wallet builders new evidence about a longstanding concern over the curves origins.　　Related Asset Ethereum #2 ETH · $2,394.16 24-hour change: down 1.18% Loading price history… 24H Down 1.18% 7D Down 4.23% 30D Down 6.00%　　The seed is a public design input used to derive a coefficient in the curves equation.

Gold Price Slides on Hot Inflation, but Schiff Says Its a Gift

Gold price slid this week on hotter-than-expected US inflation data. Yet economist Peter Schiff called gold at $4,145 a gift, arguing the Federal Reserve has already lost its inflation fight.　　On paper, the selloff looks backwards. Gold is a classic inflation hedge, yet three hot price reports in three days pushed it lower.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Why Peter Schiff Sees a Gift in the Gold Price Dip　　The September Consumer Price Index (CPI) came first, with consumer prices up 3.7% from a year earlier. That beat the 3.6% forecast.　　Wholesale inflation followed a day later. Producer prices jumped 6.3% annually, the biggest gain since 2022.　　Meanwhile, import prices rose 1.1% in September, above the 0.8% consensus.　　Even so, traders sold. They read the data as a signal for more Fed rate hikes, which make non-yielding gold less attractive.　　Gold Spot (XAUUSD) Price. Source: TradingView　　The gold price slipped about 0.6% this week and has lost more than 2% over the past month. The sharpest drop came on CPI day, before prices partly recovered.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　In contrast, Schiff says stubborn inflation proves Fed tightening has failed. For him, a weaker gold price marks a buying window rather than a warning.　　Schiff argued gold should have soared this week, adding that traders had instead handed buyers
