trezor breach explained for anyone still in coldcard hack ptsd mode

Makes sense people are jumpy right now due to the recent Coldcard hack literally two weeks before this. "Hardware wallet" + "breach" in the same headline twice in one month makes it feel like one big pattern, but they're not related incidents at all, so worth actually understanding what's actually going on instead of panicking right off the bat.

It wasn't Trezor that got hacked, it was ShipMonk, the company that packs and ships their orders. About 13,700 customers who ordered between May and August had their name, email, phone, and home address exposed. A smaller group of about 1,900 had just name, city, and email leaked.

Your device, your seed phrase, your firmware, none of that touched. Trezor says no device, private key or wallet backup was affected, and that its systems were not compromised. Nobody can get into your wallet from this.

If you're on that list, someone now knows you own a hardware wallet and has your home address. That's still a bad thing btw. In no way am I downplaying that. But this is not the same thing as the coldcard hack or anything close to that.

If you got the notification email from Trezor, you're affected. If you didn't, you're not. No reason to panic about the device itself either way
