Mark Karpelès, former Mt. Gox CEO, says he is building a low-cost device to detect hidden LTE antenna spy implants in hardware wallets such as Ledger without opening them. It emits weak radio waves and measures resonance frequencies. He plans to publish the PCB designs and specs; the project is at concept stage with a prototype expected within weeks. A linked YouTube video is not covered in the text.
TL;DR Karpelès announces an open-hardware resonance-based detector for hidden LTE implants in sealed hardware wallets.
