Trust Wallet launches automatic address poisoning protection feature, covering 32 EVM chains.

PANews reported on March 10th that, according to The Block, decentralized wallet Trust Wallet has launched an automated Address Poisoning Protection feature to combat the increasingly common "address poisoning" scams. This feature will initially support 32 EVM public chains on mobile devices. By scanning user transactions, comparing addresses, and generating discrepancies, it automatically alerts users to incorrect addresses when they copy or enter a receiving address. Trust Wallet stated that this tool integrates intelligence from HashDit and Binance Security to identify spoofed addresses, complementing its transaction-level risk scanning tool launched in 2023. Security company Cyvers reports that over 1 million address poisoning "preparatory operations" are detected daily on Ethereum, and Trust estimates approximately 34,000 attacks per hour, involving about 17 million potential victims.
