I'm generally open-minded when someone asks me to test out their project—happy to connect my wallet and kick the tires. But yeah, I've definitely had a few close calls where the intent was pretty obvious: drain the wallet. Those attempts were like... well, let's just say trying to steal from someone who's already running on empty. Lesson learned the hard way, though. Now I'm way more careful about what I approve and where I'm signing transactions. The space moves fast, but safety can't be an afterthought.

My experience of almost having my NGL wallet emptied really taught me a lesson... Now I have to think twice before signing a transaction.

My wallet has been targeted several times. Now I have to think three times before signing anything.

That feeling of almost getting rug-pulled is really intense. Now I have to argue for a long time before signing.

Data shows that the wallet authorization permissions are really an unreasonable mechanism; hourly statistics make daily updates nerve-wracking. However, we still need to continue testing the project and wait to see the pattern...

theoretically speaking, if we model wallet approval as a recursive state machine, every signature you cast is essentially a zk-proof of trust—except most devs don't even verify the underlying constraints. the "running on empty" bit hits different when you think about it through a cross-rollup lens... like, your security posture becomes the weakest bridge in the interoperability vector, y'know?
