Ledger unveiled Atom, a touchscreen Android device it calls a signer rather than a wallet, at its Op3n event in Paris on October 15. The device separates an Android environment from an isolated Secure Mode for signing transactions, ships with Solana Mobile's Seeker app and dApp Store preinstalled, and will be sold through Ledger's site starting at $849 for a limited Founder's Edition, with regular units priced at $899 and delivery expected in summer 2027.

Security researchers at Tibane Labs found counterfeit or tampered Ledger Nano X hardware wallets fitted with an extra chip that reads the device's screen output via electromagnetic leakage, plus a hidden LTE modem, eSIM and antenna powered by the wallet's own battery. This setup lets attackers capture a user's seed phrase as it's displayed and transmit it over mobile networks, despite the wallet's Secure Element chip remaining untouched. Ledger has acknowledged at least one customer suffered losses from a manipulated device, with total losses across victims estimated near $100 million.
