Definition
Malicious code that empties a wallet in one signature.
Drainer kits are sold as ready made software. They present a page that looks legitimate and ask you to sign what appears to be a login or a claim. The signature actually grants permission to transfer your tokens.
The signature can look harmless in a wallet that does not simulate transactions, which is exactly why simulation matters.
In practice
Use a wallet like Rabby that shows what a transaction will actually do before you sign it.

Want this explained out loud?
Some of these land faster in conversation than in writing. Sessions are one to one and you can ask anything, including the things that feel too obvious to ask.
