Last night, I went for a night run and checked the blockchain, casually clicking into my wallet, and saw that the contract authorization was again of that "unlimited" type. I immediately realized something... To put it simply, this thing is like lending out your house key and then forgetting who you lent it to. Usually it's fine, but when something goes wrong, you can't sleep. Many people only focus on that one transaction, thinking it's convenient to sign an authorization, since they can use it again next time. But when a certain contract gets hacked, the front end gets replaced, or you click the wrong link, that permission remains active—it's like turning on a faucet and not turning it off; it slowly leaks, and you think the floor is just damp. Recently, I saw some regions imposing taxes and then relaxing regulations, causing deposit and withdrawal expectations to fluctuate. When this happens, people start to act recklessly. The more chaotic it gets, the easier it is to slip up. That's when you should quickly revoke old authorizations—at least to avoid setting a trap for yourself. Anyway, after my run, I do two things: check that Layer 2 isn't clogged and revoke permissions... Don’t ask, because I’m just worried the mainnet might suddenly become ridiculously expensive. That’s all for now.
