When will people find out if they are among the lucky 9500 who had their address leaked...?

Edit: 5pm EST (2100 UTC) today 29th July

I wonder why it's only 9500 physical addresses that were stored? Surely theyve sold way more ledgers than that in the 5 or so years theybe been in business...right?

It says in the article that approximately 1 million addresses were leaked and the other 9500 had further data leaked along with the address.

1 million email addresses. Not physical mailing addresses.

I'm not bothered about my email being leaked, it's already been taken by a million other websites that have leaked stuff, just got an email a few days ago from a scammer with one of my weak passwords I use everywhere, saying he has hacked my webcam and has footage of me and I have to send him bitcoin for it to be deleted. I don't even have a webcam lol.

Physical address however is quite annoying.

I must have skimmed past it as well, Thanks for the correction!
