Core concepts
Put each term back into its on-chain context: networks, accounts, transactions and contracts have different responsibilities. In the context of on-chain balances, it also helps to connect token contracts with transaction states rather than treating them as isolated features. When checking state, prefer verifiable evidence such as network, address, contract and transaction hash. Keep the actual request details visible, and stop if the network, contract or permission cannot be explained clearly.
A useful review habit is to compare on-chain balances with the active network state and the exact request shown by the wallet. Third-party DApps and smart contracts may introduce their own risk, and confirmed on-chain transactions usually cannot be reversed by the wallet alone.
Practical workflow
When checking state, prefer verifiable evidence such as network, address, contract and transaction hash. In the context of token contracts, it also helps to connect transaction states with block explorers rather than treating them as isolated features. Networks can share similar address formats while keeping independent balances, gas assets, block histories and confirmation rules. Keep the actual request details visible, and stop if the network, contract or permission cannot be explained clearly.

When third-party nodes, bridges or contracts are involved, evaluate their technical risk separately from the wallet interface.

Key risks
- Never share a seed phrase, private key or verification code.
- Third-party DApps, networks and contracts can fail or behave maliciously.
- Staking and digital assets do not offer guaranteed returns or protection from price volatility.
