🛡️ Ethereum Launches ‘Clear Signing’ to Stop Wallet Drains

💠 Ethereum Foundation + major wallet devs roll out “Clear Signing” to kill blind signing scams that cost users billions.

🔍 The Problem
▶️ Users approve transactions they don’t understand due to unreadable code prompts
▶️ Attackers exploit this via phishing, fake apps, malicious links
Incidents like the Bybit hack show how blind signing enables huge losses

✅ The Fix
▶️ Human-readable prompts: Shows what assets move, who receives them, and permissions before you approve
▶️ ERC-7730 standard: Public registry of transaction descriptions reviewed by security researchers
▶️ Wallet choice: Wallets pick trusted sources to display info to users💬

💠 Why It Matters
▶️ Ethereum’s Trillion Dollar Security Initiative is overseeing the registry to make approvals safer for mainstream + institutional users.
▶️ Trezor CTO Tomáš Sušánka: “This addresses a fundamental vulnerability… every wallet provider should embrace it.”
