Ledger just added a bug to your Ledger Nano hardware wall, they are calling it Ledger Recovery and promoting it as a feature, and a good thing for users, but it is, not at least for those who want to custody their private keys without the need of a custodian or any other third party.

Ledger hardware wallet alternatives. I have been trying to find a replacement for my current hardware wallet provider which is Ledger Nano.

How to jump geolocation? Cryptocurrency liquidity jumps geolocation just like miners did. If you haven't noticed many altcoins exchanges and almost all centralized exchanges are imposing limits on US citizens, and the reason is that exchanges don't want to deal with US regulators. In the case of the European Union, they have introduced the MiCA regulations which impose tracking on all trades. The exchanges must know who their customers are and they must track their users…
