I just realized after checking the on-chain records that I previously granted some contracts "unlimited" permissions... At the time, I was trying to save trouble, thinking I’d only use it once and be done, but the permissions ended up like a faucet that never got turned off. Honestly, revoking permissions is like going to sleep: if you don’t do it, no matter how hard you work during the day, it’s a bit risky. One day, if a phishing front end or contract gets hacked, how much can be drained from your wallet depends entirely on how loose your initial security was.
Recently, there’s been talk of social mining and fan tokens, everyone says attention is mining. I actually think attention is more like "extracted fuel"... Once you start, you sign and authorize, and who knows what you’ll end up mining. But giving out permissions first is a real thing.
Next time, I plan to revoke permissions right after use, limit the amount if possible, and also split my wallets. How often do you usually clear your authorizations? Or do you never clear them at all?
