Zerion Enhances Security with BlockAid Integration
🔒 Secure Transactions Ahead
Zerion, a popular cryptocurrency wallet and DeFi platform, has announced an upgrade to its security measures by integrating with BlockAid. This integration will be implemented in both the Zerion app and browser extension. The new feature will mark potentially malicious transactions before users confirm them, helping to prevent accidental interactions with malicious contracts or tokens. Zerion encourages users to exercise caution and only interact with trusted tokens and contracts, even as it aims to provide a secure environment for DeFi, NFTs, and DApp interactions across multiple blockchain networks.
Stop stressing. Start transacting. We've upgraded our security with @blockaid_ in both the Zerion app and browser extension to keep your wallet safu.
