Infinite Approval
When interacting with DeFi, you may approve 'unlimited' token spending for a smart contract. This means it can transfer any amount from your wallet without further permission. If the protocol is compromised, all approved tokens can be drained. Use Revoke.cash to check and revoke unnecessary approvals.
