Peter Todd: Test with a small transaction to check for unsafe addresses
Testing address safety with small transactions

Peter Todd suggested that anyone unsure about the safety of a cryptocurrency address could send a small amount first and observe whether the funds are stolen by RBF bots. He implied this approach might help identify potentially unsafe addresses.

Todd has previously highlighted privacy concerns related to cryptocurrency use. He warned that removing hardware wallet re-sellers could expose user addresses to central entities in a recent article. In another note, he discussed the possibility that banks may block wallet-linked car charging payments without AML or KYC, as covered in LN wallet car payment systems.
