‍Evolving Signature Traps Drain Billions: Protect Your Crypto New threats target users at the signature prompt, leading to significant crypto losses. 'Drainer-as-a-service' kits are sophisticated, siphoning funds before on-chain transactions are visible. A key vulnerability lies in 'permit' signatures, which grant spending rights off-chain without immediate gas fees, akin to signing a blank check. Pre-sign protection, which simulates transactions and signatures in real-time, is crucial. Tools like Web3 Antivirus can flag dangerous approvals and suspicious contracts. Users should pause at the signature screen, verify spender, tokens, and amounts, avoid unlimited allowances, and use security tools. Revoking suspicious allowances and moving funds to a new wallet quickly after a potential mistake is vital. Platforms can integrate security APIs to embed these safeguards.
