I am a newbie when it comes to crypto and like an idiot I clicked on an nft and connected my wallet. They somehow drained 2600 of my staked sol on different validators, happened about 2 hours ago. Anyone I can hire to try to recover this? I feel so stupid

    Why is this an issue on sol and what is it exactly that lets a dapp drain funds just from interacting?

    Other chains you can interact, but there will never be funds taken without you accepting a transfer or your private keys being taken.

    It’s something that needs to be addressed before sol is close to being ready for mass adoption

      It happens on every chain. To me, it would help if a wallet had a “spending pin” that you had to type in it would help. So if you type this pin you know money is leaving your wallet.
