Totally get the fear of messing up a crypto transfer. I've double-checked addresses so many times, it's almost a ritual. One wrong digit and it's gone. Sticking to small test transactions first has saved me more than once

You've actually sent a test transaction to the wrong address?

What happened to the money?

Nah, I haven’t sent a test transaction to the wrong address, but I’ve come close with typos. Always triple-check. If it’s wrong, the funds are usually lost unless the recipient sends them back. Test sends are my safety net

Man, losing 4 STEEM like that must sting. I've had close calls myself, which is why I’m obsessive about test transactions. One small send first, confirm it’s right, then the rest. Saves a lot of heartache

This is why not just usernames, but also blockchain-level contact lists, are important.

Sorry, but what do you mind explaining blockchain level contact lists a bit more?
