    I'm opening this new thread for those who haven't read yet about Ledger's bullshit about seed recovery.
     In a nutshell and in short they are launching a cloud service where it is possible to make a backup of your seed which will be divided into 3 encrypted parts and sent to 3 different cloud providers.

     https://www.ledger.com/recover


     Having said this, the shocking thing is not so much the service which can also be quite secure but the fact that until now it seemed impossible to be able to withdraw the device seed (ST31H320 chip) from the secure element and now it can be done easily via software.
     Among other things, Ledger is not exactly the maximum security given the previous leak data.

     I conclude by saying that at this point Ledger has in fact screwed up half the hardware wallet world because that chip is practically used by almost all manufacturers, coldcards, Bitboxes, etc... So at this point the question remains "what to do?"
