A transfer from $DOGE may show a fee of less than 0.1 DOGE—easy to overlook. But something else may actually be spent: a small UTXO in the account containing just a few DOGE, but also carrying an inscription, gets swept up as change in the transaction. #Dogecoin
An inscription isn’t attached to a concept like “balance”; it’s attached to a specific small UTXO. Coins are selected to add up to the amount, and whichever UTXO gets picked goes along with everything attached to it. That’s why the line showing the net changes is the most important one to review in the signing window: which small outputs were added, who the recipient is, and why the fee suddenly went up. A structure that requires making one commit transaction first and then spending in a second transaction is also something you can spot in advance.
All this information is right there on the screen before you tap Confirm.
Risk warning: Once an on-chain transaction is broadcast, it cannot be reversed. Crypto asset prices can fluctuate.
