The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit changes how Stack Wallet displays Solana token balances. It replaces a live blockchain balance lookup with a temporary placeholder that always reports zero balance. The change is described by the developer as a preparatory step toward a database-backed design similar to Ethereum tokens. Because the balance shown to users will be zero until the follow-up work is completed, users could be misled about their token holdings, and send-flow checks that rely on this provider may behave incorrectly. There is no evidence in the commit that this is being exploited or that it was reported as a security issue.

Recommended action

Treat this as a functional regression with potential security side effects until the follow-up Isar schema commit lands. Verify whether the send-confirmation and send-all flows use this zero provider as the sole source of truth for available balance; if so, users may be unable to send tokens or may see incorrect 'send all' amounts. Review the second commit in the series to confirm that real balances are restored and that the new database-backed provider invalidates stale values correctly. No immediate patch is required if the series is completed promptly, but the temporary state should not be released to production.
