Blind Signing
Definition
Blind Signing refers to the act of approving a transaction on a hardware wallet without full visibility of its details.
Description
When users sign transactions using hardware wallets, they often see limited or no transaction information on the device itself, as these details are primarily displayed within the signing interface on their computer or mobile device.
Blind signing can expose users to potential risks, such as inadvertently approving malicious transactions if the signing interface has been compromised. Therefore, users are encouraged to review transaction details carefully within the signing interface before completing the process on their hardware wallet.
