@Nick_Researcher: crypto wallet IP-exposure scorecard after main wallet drain

AI summary of the linked article

The Open Source Press analyzed network traffic from popular Web3 wallets on a clean Android device with no SIM, a fresh APK install, VPN enabled, and no wallet created, logging only what each wallet sent to the internet after launch. Scores run from 0 to 100, with higher meaning less exposure, based on unique IP addresses and unique domains contacted. Cake Wallet generated 0 outbound packets and contacted 0 domains before user interaction, while Zodl contacted one endpoint and Unstoppable contacted two. At the other end, SafePal contacted 26 domains across 41 IP addresses right after launch, and OKX Wallet initialized several analytics and fingerprinting services before a wallet existed.
