The way Chia is set up right now, it's nice for checking out the network, or doing some early-bird farming, but the risk of being hacked is far too large to put in serious money into it.
Let me list the most obvious:
chia keys show
command has zero confirmations or protections.send_transaction
command, not to mention theget_private_key
one. While allowing 3rd party software to access the client for dapp purposes could be useful, it should not be unfiltered no-user-interaction-required access. Besides, dapps usually have other options for wallet interaction (e.g. WalletConnect)While I imagine the last one would eventually be offered, I don't think every last Chia user will purchase a hardware wallet. So this brings up the question: Is there a roadmap for closing the rest of these obvious attack vectors?
