RISK

Why transfer_nft is rated Critical

Transferring an NFT is a financial operation as it moves a potentially valuable digital asset (NFT) between addresses on the blockchain. This is irreversible once confirmed on-chain, and misuse could result in permanent loss of valuable assets. The requirement for a private key signing makes this a real, committed blockchain transaction with financial consequences.
