 It’s so frustrating how Ledger chooses to shitcoin, track everything, etc. because they have some terrific BTC engineering and documentation. Just read an old 20+ page blog post on mainly on mini script and it is so well written and helpful, but then a page over its like BUY THIS DONKEY COIN AND LET US TAKE YOUR KEYS WHILE YOU’RE AT IT. 🙈

 Their bitcoin team is separate from the rest, and their bitcoin team is absolutely cracked 
 Do I need to throw my ledger in the trash or are funds safu with sparrow? 
 There’s a wide range of opinions here. I am of the mind that you can still use it as part of a multisig quorum. I’d personally be a little hesitant to use as a single sig. However if you never updated the firmware after their Recover service was announced you are probably fine even in single sig. 
overall, if I had a single sig and a decent sized stack, personally I’d rather spend the money to switch hardware wallets. For a small stack I personally wouldn’t sweat it. 
Each person has to decide based on their situation. 
 Necessary so that the state will not die overnight. A parallel system is necessary for now
