Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Talking about death... one of my Ledger wallets have died. It has a burn mark near the LCD (deforming the plastic case) as if it had internally shortcircuited or something....
Anyone knows if there is some warranty replacement or something?
Has it happened to anyone else?

Well, I guess I have nothing to lose to try. Thanks!
, you might send the dead body for an autopsy and sake of education to Dave, he might be interested. Move your coins to another Ledger first, of course.That is not a bad idea. The guy (dave) is a bit nerdy, but sending to him could be a way to bring some publicity to the matter, perhaps?
Edit: I saw in a subsequent post that vapourminer pointed out a reddit thread that might be more useful, perhaps?
Well, this is why you use multiple types of storage devices. Don't trust anything you didn't built or vet yourself. Got a ledger myself, so yeah.
Isn't this the reason that you save the back-up seed separately from the hardware device? I doubt that most people have the technical abilities to "vet" or "build" these kinds of devices themselves, so they there is some trust that is involved that go beyond other security precautions involving the seed words.
