I almost caused another incident just now... I originally wanted to close a small position, but I accidentally clicked on "Unlimited Authorization," and I even copied the address one character wrong. During those few seconds of the webpage spinning, I was stunned, already starting to review what happened in my mind. Later, I compared and found out I didn't actually send the transfer, but that moment woke me up: revoking permissions is really like going to sleep, don’t bother with the hassle, saving those two minutes might cost you a restless night.



Recently, there have been frequent cross-chain bridge hacks and oracle price feed glitches, and everyone is huddling together in the phrase "waiting for confirmation." Basically, when something goes wrong on the chain, having permissions still active = the door isn't locked. Anyway, now I do this: right after a transaction, I quickly revoke any unused permissions. I might not be able to quit leverage, but at least I won't add a landmine for myself.
