🚨 Security tip: check the whole address, not just the first and last few characters
Address poisoning is simple, and it still works:
1️⃣ A scammer sends you a tiny or zero-value transfer from an address that looks like one you use (same start, same end)
2️⃣ It sits in your transaction history
3️⃣ Next time you copy an address from history, you grab theirs. On-chain there's no undo
How to stay safe:
✅ Copy addresses from your saved address book or straight from the receiver, never from history
✅ Check the middle characters too
✅ On big transfers, send a small test first
✅ Ignore dust transfers you didn't expect
Ever spotted a lookalike address in your wallet? 👀
