In recent months, an increasing number of users have reported seeing “zero-amount” transfer records in their wallet transaction history. While these entries may spark concern about wallet security, they’re typically not a sign of compromised assets—but rather a clever tactic used in phishing scams.
To help users stay protected, TokenPocket’s Android version 1.6.6 has introduced a powerful new feature: [Hide Small Transactions]. This enhancement is designed to filter out suspicious, minimal-value transfers that serve no practical purpose other than to confuse or mislead.

Why Do “Zero-Amount” Transaction Records Appear?
Zero-amount transfers occur when a smart contract directly invokes the transferFrom function of a token like USDT. Since this function allows any authorized address to initiate a transfer—even for zero value—it can generate a transaction record on the blockchain that appears as if funds were moved from your wallet.
These records are purely cosmetic and do not result in any actual loss of funds. However, they are often used by scammers as part of social engineering attacks. By displaying a fake "outgoing" transaction from your address—sometimes paired with a spoofed sender—they aim to trick you into believing something is wrong, prompting you to interact with malicious dApps or approve dangerous token authorizations.
Although such actions cannot drain your balance directly, they exploit psychological pressure and confusion. That’s why visibility control over these entries is now a crucial layer of user protection.
How to Enable the Hide Small Transactions Feature
The new Hide Small Transactions function gives you full control over what appears in your transaction history. By filtering out negligible transfers, you can maintain a clean, trustworthy view of your real financial activity.
Follow these simple steps to activate the feature:
- Open your TokenPocket wallet (ensure you’re using Android version 1.6.6 or later).
- Select any asset—such as USDT—and navigate to the transaction history page.
- Tap the settings icon located at the top right corner of the screen.
- Toggle on the [Hide Small Transactions] switch.
- Enter the threshold amount you'd like to use—for example, 0.1 USDT or 1 ETH—and tap [Save Changes].
Once enabled, all transactions below your specified amount will be automatically hidden across the current network. This includes zero-value transfers and dust-level movements that serve no legitimate purpose.
After activation, your transaction list will appear significantly cleaner. Suspicious entries generated by phishing attempts will no longer clutter your history or cause unnecessary alarm.
This feature doesn’t just improve aesthetics—it enhances security awareness by reducing noise and helping you focus only on meaningful transactions.

Core Benefits of Hiding Small Transactions
- Improved Clarity: Eliminate misleading or confusing entries from your transaction log.

As blockchain usage grows, so too does the sophistication of fraud tactics. Features like transaction filtering represent a proactive step toward empowering users with both knowledge and tools.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does a zero-amount transfer mean my wallet has been hacked?
No. A zero-amount transfer cannot withdraw funds from your wallet. It only creates a record on the blockchain that may look suspicious. Your assets remain safe as long as you haven’t approved any unauthorized token allowances.
Q: Can scammers steal my money through these fake transactions?
Not directly. These transactions are illusions created via smart contract calls. However, they may be part of a broader phishing strategy meant to trick you into connecting to fake sites or approving malicious contracts. Always verify URLs and contract permissions.
Q: Will hiding small transactions affect my ability to track real payments?
No. You set the threshold based on your needs. For example, if you set it to hide transactions below $1, only negligible or suspicious entries will disappear—your legitimate transfers will remain fully visible.
Q: Is this feature available on iOS or only Android?
Currently, the Hide Small Transactions feature is available on TokenPocket Android version 1.6.6 and above. iOS support may be rolled out in future updates.
Q: Can I still view hidden transactions if needed?
Yes. While the feature hides transactions from the main list, advanced users can still access full blockchain data through external explorers like Etherscan or BscScan by searching their wallet address.
Q: What’s the recommended threshold amount for hiding small transactions?
Most users find 0.1 USDT or 0.001 ETH sufficient to filter out noise without missing meaningful activity. Adjust according to your typical transaction size and network congestion patterns.
Best Practices for Wallet Security
While tools like transaction filtering improve safety, the strongest defense remains user vigilance:
- ✅ Always double-check wallet addresses before confirming transfers.
- ✅ Revoke unused token approvals regularly.
- ✅ Avoid interacting with unknown dApps or suspicious links.
- ✅ Use hardware wallets for large holdings.
- ✅ Enable two-factor authentication where supported.
Remember: No legitimate service will ever ask you to approve a zero-value transfer. If you see one unexpectedly, it’s likely a red flag—even if it's now hidden automatically.
