ZachXBT Announces Major Crypto Investigation

On January 4, 2026, on-chain sleuth ZachXBT revealed Ledger’s latest data breach via third-party payment handler Global-e, which notified customers of “unusual activity” in its cloud system. Exposed info includes names and contact details for some Ledger buyers, no wallet seeds or crypto compromised. Global-e contained the breach and hired forensic experts for a probe. This echoes Ledger’s July 2020 e-commerce hack affecting 1M+ emails and 272k full profiles used in phishing since. Users should watch for scams.
