As long as you don’t click links your doing the most to stay safe
Anyone who says they didn’t approve it is mistaken or lying. It has to be approved by the wallet owner.
And yes you are safer using another browser that doesn’t have the extention for your wallet. But they could also be sending you a virus.
I have an old laptop I call the sandbox. If I open any links I do it on their because I have none of my accounts on it. It’s blank but connected to the internet.
But that’s only if you want to go above and beyond. Safest thing, like I originally said, just don’t click any links🤷♂️
Just look the token up on solscan and it will tell you the holders
Idt it’s popping because there are less than 800 rn
