Maestro Trading Fees by Chain | Source: DefiLlamaBeInCrypto’s editors found that the bot offers options to create a new wallet from scratch or import an existing one on Ethereum and BNB Chain. The user must supply the bot with their private key for signing transactions.
Accordingly, both options expose private data and can result in the project’s developers deducting 100% of the wallet’s balance as commission. BeInCrypto’s editorial board strongly cautions readers against disclosing private wallet keys protecting a significant amount of crypto.
In addition to the keys, trading bot users must also deanonymize themselves by revealing their IP addresses through automatic verification.
