Ledger CTO Charles Guillemet has issued a response to the report from Kraken, which you can view in its entirety below.

“We are grateful to the Kraken team for bringing this vulnerability to our attention. While we have addressed this issue at length on Ledger, we want to assure our users that funds stored on their Ledger Nano X could never be accessed, since the Ledger Nano X’s security relies on the Secure Element – not on the MCU chip. The issue could allow an attacker who intercepted the device during the supply chain to install malware on the user’s PC, though the funds would still be safe.

A Bitcoin whale just moved nearly 19,631 BTC worth about $184 million to an unknown wallet.

The fee for the transaction? About 0.00421580 BTC, worth about $40 at time of writing. Whale Alert was the first to spot the movement.
The whale initially moved the massive Bitcoin trove to a single wallet with no previous transaction history. About 37 minutes later, that wallet sent off the entire BTC haul to a long list of separate wallets, initially in chunks of about 195.045 BTC (approximately $1.83 million).

Of those recipients, all but one appears to have shifted the entirety of their Bitcoin into a flurry of smaller transactions with other wallets, resulting in hundreds of transactions across the board.
