BlockBeats News, February 10th, Phantom announced the launch of Phantom Chat, positioning it as a new social feature for 2026.
On-chain sleuth ZachXBT warned that this feature could become a new asset theft vector and pointed out that Phantom has yet to address the "address poisoning" issue. Users may inadvertently copy similar addresses and fall victim to asset theft if they do not filter out spam transaction records. It was disclosed that last week, a user lost 3.5 WBTC due to this.
