The idea is to help people quickly understand when their wallet might be exposed to common scams or malicious activity before they sign something dangerous or interact with suspicious assets.</p> <p>The tool is focused on detecting and warning about things like:</p> <ul> <li>address poisoning</li> <li>dust attacks</li> <li>fake airdrops / scam tokens</li> <li>risky token approvals</li> <li>suspicious contract interactions</li> <li>impersonation patterns</li> <li>other common wallet attack vectors</li> </ul> <p>The goal is simplicity rather than advanced analytics — basically a “you’re probably about to do something risky” layer for normal users who don’t deeply understand on-chain security.</p> <p>I know the target audience is probably not the average user of this sub, since many people here are already quite experienced, but I’d still love feedback from people who understand the space better than I do.</p> <p>Some things I’m trying to figure out:</p> <ul> <li>what attacks are most commonly overlooked by beginners?</li> <li>what signals produce too many false positives?</li> <li>what would make a warning actually useful instead of annoying?</li> <li>are there existing tools/features you think are missing or poorly implemented?</li> </ul> <p>Any suggestions, criticism, or ideas are welcome.</p> ai web3 webdev beginners Hi everyone, I’m currently developing an online wallet security tool mainly aimed at less experienced crypto users.
