SN Top Story #2 - Ledger announced a new service for their hardware wallets. Ledger Recover takes your private keys off your device and sends them to Ledger.

SN Top Story #5 - @2gigs1coin, as their nym suggests, works two "full-time" fiat jobs while misleading their employers. If the claim stands, they're more productive than average yet not so productive that they can be honest (instead taking advantage of their employer's negligence and/or goodwill). While IC pay tends to be asymptotic at middling companies, which is lame, this guy is a shitcoin now.  SN Discussion
