Today I want to talk about "pause": don’t immediately assume you understand blockchain construction and bundling well enough to write a client... Retail investors actually just need to know what’s "enough." To put it simply, there are two points: first, the transaction you send may not go directly into a block; it could be bundled, reordered, or front-run; second, the moment you click sign/authorize is the real decision point that determines whether you lose money.
So I suggest pausing and taking three seconds: what is actually shown in the wallet pop-up—approve unlimited, or give certain contracts backdoor permissions; does the transaction simulation turn your swap into “transfer all my assets”? Don’t get carried away by AI Agent’s automatic trading hype; automation ≠ security. Many people are saving on operations but end up automating “unlimited approvals + blind signing”… That’s not progress, it’s speeding up a crash. Anyway, I get furious when I see unlimited approvals now, so if you can stop, just stop.
