What is EIP-712 and why do typed signatures matter for dApps?
Answer
EIP-712 defines typed structured data signing.
It improves:
- Human-readable signing prompts
- Reduced phishing risk
- Domain separation (prevents replay across apps)
Use EIP-712 for permits and meta-transactions where users sign messages instead of sending on-chain transactions. Always validate chain IDs and domains.
