These days, watching Layer2 discussions, everyone is arguing about TPS, fees, and subsidies which is more attractive.
I'm actually more concerned about an old issue: don't keep the contract authorization unlimited.
To put it simply, granting permission is like handing someone the key to your door; once the contract has a problem or is replaced, your assets in your wallet might be taken without your knowledge.
Revoking permissions is like locking the door before bed—maybe nothing happens if you don't do it, but if something does, it's a one-time event.
Right now, I basically: after using, I pull the allowance back to just enough, or simply set it to zero;
For new protocols, I try with 0.01 USDT first, and after confirming nothing's wrong in 2 minutes, I add more.
It's a bit troublesome, but it's much more reassuring than fixing things after the fact...
Anyway, I prefer to make one less transaction hassle, rather than risk an "unlimited" bomb.
