On-Chain Safety Is Evolving — Poison Scams Won’t Last Forever
A user recently lost $50M USDT due to an address poisoning scam.
Scammers send tiny “dust” transactions using wallet addresses that look almost identical to trusted ones. When users copy from history, funds go to the wrong address.
⚠️ This is not a hack — it’s a trick.
The good news?
On-chain systems and wallets are moving toward automatic detection of these poison addresses before you hit confirm.
Very soon, suspicious addresses will be flagged or blocked by default.
What you should do until then:
✅ Never copy addresses from transaction history
✅ Always use saved / whitelisted addresses
✅ Double-check the full address, not just first & last characters
Security is shifting from user responsibility to protocol-level protection.
Poison scams are temporary. On-chain safety is permanent.
