The page should emphasize mistakes that lead to lost funds or unnecessary costs.
Network and address risk
Wrong network and wrong address errors are different from general usability mistakes.
Fee surprises
Beginners should check transaction costs before sending small amounts.
Safety rule
Slow down when money can leave your control permanently.
Be careful with websites that promise unrealistic rewards, ask for deposits before withdrawal, or require suspicious wallet connections. Small reward sites should never need your seed phrase.
