From my humble opinion, the best solution to implement this (assuming someone actually need this feature in the first place and there is really no such backdoor to extract the seed pharse), is to make an app running on ledger device that requires the user to input the seed

Ledger keeps screwing up. Trezor often seen as better. In reality, neither, nor any other digital gizmo is needed. https://v.redd.it/06cyilqto70b1 Old School Sledger Attack Ledger is officially a hot wallet. It can expose your seed phrase to third parties! (Confirmed on their sub) (self.CryptoCurrency) by BusinessBreakfast3 I woke up to shocking news! TLDR The ledger device actually can expose your seed phrase to the internet. Initially it was a speculation and people were expecting updates. Eventually, we got them: https://np.reddit.com/r/ledgerwallet/comments/13itm7u/is_there_a_backdoor_ye... So yes, it's a service your can opt for for "recovery services", but the bottom line is that it can expose the seed phrase. Ultimately, it's a matter of the French government knocking on their doors and asking for it. This actually makes your funds at Ledger less safe than on MetaMask. At least we don't have a confirmation that other hot wallets can access or keep copies of the seed phrases. Leger, it was nice while it lasted... But it's game over. ​ Edit: to the people downvoting my comments: I'm also a Ledger user. Have been using it for multiple years to store my crypto. I'm not happy that this happened and I hate the upcoming inconvenience of buying new wallets and sending crypto back and forth. But unfortunately, this is the reality. :( ​ Edit 2: Many users say but you can choose not to opt-in!!1 You can't opt out of the device being able to leak data to the internet. You can only opt out of Ledger doing it with intent. ​ Edit 3: They just doubled down on Twitter spaces. They described the product and didn't address the relevant comments and concerns. They kept repeating that it's an "opt in service" and finished by saying that their product is not for people with more than $50k. 1640 comments [–]CryptoMaximalistBitconnect Whale[M] [score hidden] 13 hours ago* stickied commentlocked comment (14 children) In situations like this, we try to pin official responses so readers have both sides of the story.

Until recently, you had to dig under 8 paragraphs on an unrelated article about FTX customers just to find it. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/ftx-crypto-investors-hardware-wallets Ledger is preparing to launch a new service called Ledger Recover that splits a wallet recovery phrase—basically, a human-readable form of the private key—into three encrypted shards and distributes them to three custodians: Ledger, crypto custody firm Coincover, and code escrow company EscrowTech. If somebody loses their recovery phrase, two of the three shards can be combined—pending an ID check—to regain access to the locked funds. Essentially, Ledger Recover is an additional safety net; for the price of $9.99 a month, it takes the jeopardy out of crypto’s version of stuffing dollars under the mattress. It’ll be available in the UK, EU, US, and Canada and come to other territories later in the year. You would think they'd display this information more prominently, especially as it concerns something that fundamentally changes their business model. permalink embed save report give award reply [–]springdot1Tin 145 points146 points147 points 14 hours ago (33 children) “ - pending an ID check - “ Well that’s fine then.

If I got it right, the device produces three shards with a concept similar to Shamir’s Secret Sharing, and shares it with Ledger and two partner companies. Two of these shards are needed to recover your seed and knowing one shard gives you no relevant entropy advantage when trying to brute-force it. With that being said, I still hate the feature. This still heavily relies on trust, and the connected PC can at least request the shards - opening new ways to exploit it with man-in-the-middle or social engineering attacks. The best solution would be offering a separate fw without this feature for the "fundamentalists" - similar to Trezor and Bitbox which offer BTC-only-firmwares for their devices.

The fact that it's even possible to extract your seed literally breaks the entire purpose of a hardware wallet. As soon as you have to trust ledger to not extract your seed phrase you might as well use a bank? Besides ledger themselves this leaves the possibility for your ledger firmware to be compromised by a 3rd party to be able to extract your seed.

I would agree to call it a "hot hw-wallet" from now on. There is a chance this feature can only be used once after setup and will be disabled afterwards, similar to the seed backup.

The government confiscated your ledger and can get access to your seed through the ledger company by making them update your firmware and extracting the seed. A 3rd party might be able to compromise the firmware of your ledger, extract the seed and steal your funds. The fact that the possibility to extract the seed even exists is a fundamental flaw and there is no solution other than not using a ledger. The point of a hardware wallet is that it SHOULD be impossible on a hardware-level to extract the seed. If a simple firmware update is enough... the whole point is gone.
