Binance Academy warns Bitcoin users of a unique method scammers are using to break individual privacy on the blockchain. A “dusting attack” involves sending a small amount of satoshis (called dust) to many users. The idea is that most users won’t notice such a small amount being added to their balance, and will ultimately spend the dust. By tracking the wallets that received dust attackers can start to paint a picture of the user and potentially gather enough information to learn the identity of the person or company behind a blockchain address.
