+_**Project Description 📄✨**_
+
+Why TxShield?
+
+TxShield is a transaction simulation platform shielding Web3 users from pitfalls like failed transactions, high gas fees, and honeypot scams—costing Ethereum users $103M+ from 2018–2024 (per scam reports). Using Ethers.js and Next.js, it previews transactions, nails gas estimates, and flags risks (e.g., “High Gas Fees Detected: Possible Honeypot!”). It empowers 21M+ MetaMask users to transact safely, cutting losses and building trust.
+
+
+Why It’s Useful 🌟:
+
+Ethereum Ecosystem: Tackles failed txns ($100K lost once) and scams, aligning with Web3 Foundation’s safety goals 🛡️
+Cross-Chain Potential: Supports Ethereum, Polygon, Optimism (Sepolia, Chain ID: 11155111), with Polkadot plans 🚀
+Developer Utility: Open-source (MIT) at github.com/HoodClock/SafeTxSimulator for safer dApps 🌐
