It's a common misconception that just simulating transactions will keep you safe from losing your crypto!

Simulation only works for transactions, not for signatures. Most attacks these days are happening through Seaport signatures and it will only get worse with Uniswap permit2.

I think wallets should definitely be keeping tabs on signatures and displaying active ones to users to mitigate this

for example, if you sign a seaport signature the wallet itself also logs that somewhere and displays it to the user as “active” along with other ones they may have signed. Now when the signature gets invalidated etc the user can clear it from the list. I’m sure on some level it can be automated though.

yeah i agree, i meant in the sense that once the signature becomes invalidated the wallet would automatically remove the logged sig as well

Yep it's a good idea to log signed signatures. There are ways to invalidate seaport signatures but you'd have to do it before the attacker submits it. It requires a signature so can't be totally automated
