Some dApps create infinite approvals for tokens or sometimes bugs are discovered in our most ‘trusted’ dApps. By operating with smart contracts, we can give phishers access to our funds even without noticing. Today we’ll take a look at 3 tools that can help you revoke your allowances or help you see an overview of these.
Use Etherscan.io
Etherscan is the leading BlockChain Explorer for Ethereum. The longest running independent project built around Ethereum has a tool to Review and revoke your token approvals for any dApp. By using this revoking tool you could stop the possibility that bad actors will withdraw any amount of tokens from your wallet.
With Revoke Cash you can manage your token allowances and protect yourself from scams on 30+ chains, including Ethereum, Polygon and Avalanche. They also have extensions available on Chrome, Brave, Edge and other Chromium-based browsers through the Chrome Web Store and on Firefox.
Approved zone is an open source application that makes sure everyone can track their token allowances. It allows managing the previous token approvals, and even to decline all approvals in just one click!
Be sure to bookmark these revoking websites and double check that the “bookmark star” shows up when visiting the website to stay safe against these forms of phishing.
