  A dusting attack is a malicious activity where a small amount of cryptocurrency is sent to multiple addresses in an attempt to de-anonymize the recipients. The attacker hopes to link these addresses to a single entity and gather information about their transactions. To protect your cryptocurrency wallet from a dusting attack, you should avoid reusing addresses and use a wallet that supports address labeling. Additionally, regularly monitoring your wallet for suspicious transactions and keeping your software up to date can help prevent dusting attacks.

  Dusting attacks are like a sneaky way for attackers to track your cryptocurrency transactions. They send a tiny amount of cryptocurrency to your wallet and then monitor the blockchain to see where it goes. To protect your wallet, you should use a wallet that allows you to generate a new address for each transaction. This way, it becomes much harder for attackers to link your transactions together. Also, be cautious of any unexpected transactions and regularly check your wallet for any signs of dusting attacks.
