Tool to check if Hardware wallets are tampered or not

[cryptoaddictchie]

Just typically browsing on X and my timeline is all about Ledger and hardware wallets and see this post. Mentioned that supported some of known hardware wallets if you got a tampered one or not. How can we get the photo of our board photo without dismantling it? Or we need to open it up to check it with this tool?

built this to help you check your hardware wallet for signs of tampering.

upload a board photo. works with onekey, ledger and trezor. free, no signup, no photos saved.

it can flag what looks wrong, but a clean result isn’t an all-clear.

The site to check it:

Code:

tampered.app

Just kidding about that last part, but seriously, how much trust are we going to place in other people.  Buy a Hardware Wallet directly from the manufacturer.  If they don't ship to your country, don't buy one their wallets.

If you're unable to buy any hardware wallets, use an off-line PC.  If you can't afford an old, cheap computer to dedicate for off line usage, use a bootable USB with a secure OS.  There are so many alternatives.

Ive had mine few years ago ordered it from the official ledger and I didnt buy one off from resellers. Just sharing this here maybe some who bought from resellers here wanted to check their if their devices are secured and not tampered ofcourse with their discretion if they gonna trust that tool or not.

Since mostly here are OG on bitcoin I bet their gonna do too what you suggest but who knows maybe some did?

It's not a bad idea to release tool like this, but I have my doubts when guy who releases it is founder and main guy of Onekey wallet.
Than we see that only three hardware wallet manufacturers are supported, and we also have Keystone, KeycardShell and many other devices.

Only way to get photos is to physically open your device.
I know plenty of people who did that, especially with ledger crap, when they replaced display or batteries.

Personally I wouldnt do this cause if my device got compromised I think theres no other way but to accept the fact that we end up losing due to our irresponsibility to protect whats needed to do so.

But for those nervious guys,- theres no need to panic and do this cause if we are talking time we already too late. Its either you accept it or not for the better.
