No doubt about that--but I don't suspect that Ledger is ever going to release the numbers since they're not a public company and thus don't have to. Nor are they likely to further damage their brand by announcing a drop in sales or in users. But man, I really would like to know how much this debacle is (or is going to) hitting them as far as profits go.
And to Abiky I'd say with respect to HW wallets, closed-source code is a bad thing as Ledger has proven. Such code might be acceptable in other things, but not when it comes to crypto--at least not as far as I can see.
From everything I've read since this went down with Ledger, the best HW wallet brands for bitcoin are BitBox, Blockstream Jade, and Keystone. Some folks have mentioned others, but I'm pretty sure that's because they were paid sponsorships on Youtube. I'm pretty turned off by Ledger and HW wallets in general now, so I don't think I'll be buying any new ones (except perhaps as collectibles).

I like the Jade wallet very much. It has so many features for a very low price. And best of all, it's open source so you don't have to worry about Blockstream "going rogue" sometime in the future. I'd just start over by destroying the seed linked to my Ledger wallet, and make a new seed on the Jade wallet. That's without transfering my BTC funds first.
I've looked into Passport as well, but it's a lot more expensive than other open source wallets. But it's quite interesting to say the least. With plenty of alternatives on the market, who needs Ledger anymore?
