What do you know about digital dust?

Recommended Posts

Something strange happened to me some time ago, when I noticed that small quantities of a cryptocurrency had arrived in my wallet, which did not exceed a few cents.  I was amazed at this, and upon researching and exploring, I discovered what is called digital dust.  A Dusting attack is defined as a new type of malicious activity in which hackers attempt to violate the privacy of Bitcoin users and cryptocurrencies by sending small amounts of currency to their personal wallets and many Bitcoin owners believe that their identity is well protected from attempts to infiltrate and view their transactions  Unfortunately, this is not true.

Did it happen with you like this?  That is, to have currencies link you to your digital wallets without knowing their source? 

Is this dangerous as I read it? 

How do we avoid the risks of this phenomenon?

I sometimes notice that a small amount of currency gets to my wallet but I don't care about it. I don't give this matter any importance.  But according to your words we must think about the reasons for this and how to protect from the risks of this.

Yes sometimes this is like a miracle for us, getting a small amount of coins in our wallet suddenly. Sometimes we do have to anticipate from all this, whether this is dangerous or not, obviously we have to find out where the source is coming from.

Nice subject. thank you, my friend, for the warning. 
I've got with me, but I didn't know who to send little money to my wallet if this is an attempt to hack my wallet 
Can you tell us how to protect my money from this trick?

Well you can create more wallets, and store your majority of the coins there, and the wallet you have, dust as you say, come in, let it come in and accept it gratefully, and enjoy the money. Try cold wallets, they are the best I guess.

Personally, I did not experience this problem. But after hearing the illustration that was conveyed. It seems like it has happened before and indeed these people send us tokens to our wallets.

Digital dust -  tiny electronic devices in the form of dust particles ,which contain sensors and can be used for wireless communication.

In other terms -Digital means data ,virtual and immaterial ,its black and white ,crisp demarcated ,perfectly defined .Dust is grey and deeply ,existentially fuzzy.

I never noticed that there is such a phenomenon, digital dust. This may be due to the fact that this effect is being converted.

This also happens to me, but im not woried since the wallet im using can only be accessed using my finger print, its a mobile wallet and i have my own private key. Also the device i use for my wallet is often offline. This dusting scam reminds me somewhat of simcard swap scam in the way the hackers collect info by doing exploratory phone calls to check if a phone number is valid.

Just make sure you don't do anything weird with your wallet and don't use it on unsafe websites and try to not keep all your money in one place

I have seen many give aways on twitter they want people BTC ,ETH address for give away.Then they sell these addresses to hackers.So the hackers send small amount of BTC to the account and then they made contact with you on your social media account.I have heard these cases.So always secure your BTC Address.

Yeah Actually i have not knowledge about digital dust but i think this is scammers. There were many scammers are staying with internet and its called digital dust.

In the world of digital currencies, the word "dust" means any small amount of currencies or symbols. The amount is usually so small that it is often forgotten or ignored. Any amount smaller than a few hundred satoshi can be referred to as dust.

A dust attack might not look dangerous at first glance, but the motives behind this are certainly worth considering, and I would certainly be alarmed if it happens with my account. It certainly means that someone is targetting your account and you should worry about this and take measures to secure your privacy and funds.

And then what happens ? Do they make an attempt to steal from your wallet ? What would be the use I'm thinking. Is this really hacking or are these staking awards ?

I don't have any idea about this digital dust thing, it's a really interesting and good news or information. Most of us here in crypto world think that we are safe, but we are wrong because hackers can always find way on how they will breach or infiltrate a system.

I have no idea that these things exists, although I have not been in the cryptocurrency world for a long period of time. I have not encountered this and do not know much about it but it is pretty interesting.

you can avoid the track from the people who send you the dust, using wallets that have the"do not spend" function.

doing this you will not spend those dust coins making new transactions, doing this they are not able to define your wallets

    • Хотел бы рассказать о интересном сайте под названием CoinsCrash На нём есть кран который платит 2Bits (2Bits=200satoshi) в час, сбор неограничен, вывод от 150 Bits из которых берётся 50Bits на комиссию. Так же на данном проекте есть что-то по типу "баунти". Можно дополнительно заработать 600Bits. По 100Bits за пост на каждом из 5  форумов а еще 100Bits за видео на ютуб. Данный "кран" точно платит(снизу доказательства, и да они мои) и я думаю он еще долго проработает и будет платить. Реферальная программа, насказать что крутая, просто нормальная:2 Bits за реферала вы получаете каждые 24 часа, а еще если ваш реферал сделает депозит вы получите 5% от вклада. Кран живёт за счет режима crush, и по этому он может так щедро раздавать. Вы также можете заработать больше битов, играя в Crash Game, которая очень интересна, попробуйте сами.

    • Рубрика вопросы и ответы от ChangeExpert Как майнить криптовалюту? Основы майнинга криптовалюты Майнинг криптовалюты - это процесс создания новых блоков в блокчейне и подтверждения транзакций с использованием специализированных вычислительных ресурсов. Этот процесс является ключевым элементом функционирования криптовалют и обеспечивает их безопасность и децентрализацию.   Как это работает? Процесс майнинга начинается с того, что майнеры собираются в сети и конкурируют между собой за право создать новый блок. Для этого им необходимо решить сложную математическую задачу, которая требует больших вычислительных ресурсов. Первый майнер, который успешно решит задачу, получает право добавить новый блок к блокчейну и получить вознаграждение в виде криптовалюты.   Как начать майнить? Выбор криптовалюты: Прежде всего, вам необходимо выбрать криптовалюту, которую вы хотите майнить. Наиболее популярными криптовалютами для майнинга являются биткоин, эфириум и другие альткоины.   Выбор оборудования: Для майнинга криптовалюты вам понадобится специализированное оборудование, такое как ASIC-майнеры для биткоина или графические карты для эфириума. Выбор оборудования зависит от выбранной криптовалюты и вашего бюджета. Присоединение к пулу: Майнить криптовалюту самостоятельно может быть сложно из-за высокой сложности задач и непредсказуемости вознаграждения. Поэтому многие майнеры присоединяются к майнинг-пулам, где они объединяют свои ресурсы с другими майнерами для более стабильного получения вознаграждения. Установка программного обеспечения: После выбора криптовалюты и оборудования вам необходимо установить специальное программное обеспечение для майнинга. Это программное обеспечение поможет вам настроить ваше оборудование и подключиться к майнинг-пулу. Начало майнинга: После всех подготовительных действий вы можете начать майнить криптовалюту. Ваше оборудование будет решать математические задачи, и вы будете получать вознаграждение в виде криптовалюты в зависимости от вашего вклада.   Заключение Майнинг криптовалюты - это увлекательный и перспективный процесс, который может приносить приличный доход. Однако он требует значительных инвестиций в оборудование и электроэнергию, а также терпения и умения разбираться в технических деталях. Важно помнить, что майнинг - это не только способ заработка денег, но и способ поддерживать работу и развитие криптовалютных сетей.   Контакты для связи: Официальный сайт: https://changeexpert.io По вопросам рекламы и сотрудничества в ТГ: @Advertising_ChangeExpert По вопросам обмена в ТГ: @Operator_ChangeExpert Наш телеграмм канал: https://t.me/changeexpertio Мы в ВК: https://vk.com/changeexpert_otzyvy

    • Tupac против Drake: Угроза судебного иска из-за использования AI-фейковых голосов Вступление: В мире музыки недавно возникла новая сенсация, связанная с использованием искусственного интеллекта (AI) для создания фейковых голосов знаменитостей. И если ранее один из таких треков с участием Drake и The Weeknd был удален из-за нарушения авторских прав, то на этот раз сам Drake оказался под угрозой судебного иска со стороны наследия легендарного рэпера Тупака Шакура. Развитие событий: Недавно Drake выпустил трек под названием "TaylorMade", в котором он использовал AI-созданный голос Тупака Шакура. Однако, такой ход вызвал серьезные претензии со стороны адвокатов наследия Тупака, которые угрожают подать на Drake в суд за использование голоса без соответствующего разрешения. Реакция Drake: После получения угрозы судебного иска, Drake принял решение удалить трек "TaylorMade" с его профиля на X, однако, песню все еще можно найти, если поискать. Это решение было принято, видимо, чтобы избежать дальнейших юридических проблем и споров. Влияние AI-технологий на индустрию музыки: Этот инцидент поднимает важные вопросы о влиянии AI-технологий на индустрию музыки и авторские права. Технологии, позволяющие создавать фейковые голоса знаменитостей, вызывают опасения относительно подделки и нарушения прав наследников артистов, которых больше нет с нами. Заключение: Использование AI-голосов в музыке становится все более популярным, но этот случай с Drake и Тупаком Шакуром показывает, что этот тренд может вызывать серьезные юридические проблемы. Возможно, необходимо разработать более четкие правила и регулирование в отношении использования AI-технологий в музыкальной индустрии, чтобы защитить права артистов и их наследников. В противном случае, подобные споры могут продолжаться и иметь долгосрочные последствия для индустрии в целом.   Подробнее читайте на нашем сайте в разделе НОВОСТИ.
