Crypto users would specify what onchain action they want and then click \u201cOK\u201d or \u201cCancel\u201d after seeing a transaction simulation of that action.<\/p>\n

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has suggested using \u201ctransaction simulations\u201d and other similar features to improve the user experience and security of Ethereum wallets and smart contracts.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a post to X on Sunday, Buterin argued<\/a> that security and user experience are not separate fields, as both revolve around user intent \u2014 ensuring protocols are doing what users intend them to do.<\/p>\n
