What are the risks of using Dapps?

Most times I’ve seen communities complain of Dapps and checking through, most Dapps Apk were downloaded from a wrong site that are used for phishing out login details from users.

And also one of the problems I’ve personally experienced is the tedious process of connecting Dapps for web3 wallets and stuff like that.

But then having projects with DePIN and AI-aligned infrastructure protocol able to achieve an environment where programmers and vibrant group of builders, developers can create a decentralized data infrastructure to enable ethical AI, DePIN and scalable Web3 apps, will be more valuable in this space, saving us from scams.

Now like the new listing project called $CESS promises this features, maybe giving in a chance in my portfolio would not hurt. I’m so curious to know what happens after bitget announced listing this token.
There is a 0% gas fee for deposits; this made me have more confidence because I think this CEX supports the project too.

What’s your take about this?

Good question—DApps might be decentralized, but that doesn’t mean risk-free. Smart contract bugs, rug pulls, or even just poorly designed code can mess things up fast. Plus, if you're connecting your wallet directly, one bad move and your funds are gone. Always double-check the project, use a burner wallet if you're testing, and don’t trust hype alone.

your entire wallet drained.
use a burner to connect, and funnel ur burner funds into main afterwards your done.

Your right.. and you've listed all necessary pre cautions.. however using extra protection from data privacy L1 like Cess makes it easier though. Anyways OP asked about how well the token does, after listing it dropped probably due to airdrop. But it's accumulating rn! And looks good. Candybomb is another avenue to get involved if you're familiar..
