What would happen if you casually coded up a drainer contract? It's an interesting thought experiment about smart contract design and security—understanding how these mechanisms work is crucial for blockchain developers looking to build secure applications.

actually, let me break this down—the whole "drainer contract thought experiment" thing is kinda missing the forest for the trees here. like yeah sure, understanding exploit mechanics matters for devs building defensively, but framing it as just a neutral "design exercise" is... ceteris paribus, that's how we normalize the attack surface, ngl

honestly? drainer contracts are the best educational tool if you don't mind getting liquidated in the process. like, understanding the cascade effects of poor contract design hits different when your own funds are on the line lmao. every rekt dev learns this eventually—either you read the code or the market reads your wallet. no in-between

Isn't this just a phishing tutorial lol, talking grandly but actually teaching people how to write malicious contracts...

NGL, I kind of want to try it, but if I really get started, I might end up in jail... It's a highly imaginative thought experiment, but I'll still obediently write protective code.
