RISK

Why stx_deploy_contract is rated Critical

Deploying a smart contract to a blockchain is a financial operation: it broadcasts an irreversible on-chain transaction that consumes STX tokens as fees and permanently publishes executable code. On a Bitcoin wallet server handling real assets, a misused deployment could commit funds, create malicious contracts to drain wallets, or lock tokens.
