6 years ago I think a bad mess up or hack and any of these platforms/dev's would find it difficult to recover from and indeed consumer confidence could decelerate the whole industry. It is relatively new technology/ideology and the earlier you adopt the greater the risks....but also far greater rewards! Is it a bubble? I think so, but unlikely to burst for some time yet and by the time mass adoption occurs the people who have followed and studied the various developments will more likely end up holding coins from the survivors when the bubble bursts (most likely the first movers) This probably doesn't make the people who have lost coins/money feel any better but i suppose its better than getting burgled? Banks will soon be getting robbed by pale 16 year olds from their bedrooms at their mums house.....Better than a shotgun in the face?

I am a complete novice but followed the ledger instructions fully, I only have used one 24 word pass phrase. The problem can only be a nano ledger created glitch when I updated to the latest ripple wallet.
Thanks to numero41 and others for carrying the cause, I hope we together can all find a satisfactory resolution to our individual nano ledger created issues.
I came from - https://discord.cityofzion.io to make this post. ...We need support.
I ask all that experienced this problem, join this thread so we can compare notes.
Hopefully; we can get Neo and Ledger to join the support, instead of claim 3rd party software.
On December 22, I installed Neon Wallet 0.0.7. After connecting to Ledger Nano S, I transferred 108 Neo from the Bittrex exchange, using copy/paste of public key in Neon wallet. ...I kept the wallet open until I saw the transaction complete. It showed my transfer as expected. I closed the wallet and went to bed. (1:00 AM)
The next morning, I opened the Neon wallet to check it out. There was a ZERO balance. After more examination, I realized, the public key was different. That makes two public keys, and only one being addressed by Neon wallet attached to Ledger.
In my search for support, I found my way here on gethub ... https://github.com/CityOfZion/neon-wallet/issues/416. The person who posted that thread invited me to "discord.cityofzion.io" We are getting referred back here.
Coranos got involved in that discussion, and finally gave up. I quote him here: "Sir, your neo is gone. Finding the defect that caused your car to explode is not the same thing as un-exploding your car. Simmilarly, imagining ways a car can explode is not helpful, when trying to find why a specific car exploded in a specific way. Best I can do at this point is to warn people that at some point, their car may explode, and they better test their recovery process at least once before putting more than 2 NEO in any address. I've muted this thread." I feel like it is something else that blew up like a car. My "bullion/Neo" in the car/wallet is still lost. Where can we go to find the answer to recover the missing Neo? There is more than just a couple of us.
To add chaos to the problem; On Jan 10, I upgraded to the Neon wallet from 0.0.7 to 0.0.9. Now I have another public key. That makes three, the one that got the Neo, the new one I had the next morning, and the one I have now. I have uninstalled the Neon wallet and reinstalled, still the third public key. Even if I uninstall ver 0.0.9 and reinstall 0.0.7, I get the third key. (I have reinstalled it back to 0.0.9) When I run my 24 Ledger phrase, through https://coranos.github.io/neo/ledger-nano-s/recovery/, it now returns the third public key at the top of the list.
ATTENTION: All who suffered this loss; join this conversation here, Let us all compare notes, so we can get to the bottom of what happened.
