Dusting Attack is an attack on cryptocurrency users by sending small amounts of coins or tokens to their wallet address to track and identify the wallet owner.

Dusting attacks work by sending a very small amount of cryptocurrency (dust) to the target wallet address. The aim is to connect and track the movement of funds from that wallet to other wallets to identify the owner.

This wallet owner identification information can then be misused for phishing, personal data theft, or other attacks. The attacker can also continue to track the victim's wallet in the future.
