Before Ethereum enters mass adoption, there needs to be a way to prevent phishing dust attacks.
1 min read
I’m certain that anybody in this subreddit would agree when we say ETH is gonna be huge in the future. But there seems to be one glaring problem that I can foresee causing issues in the future.
Dusting attacks.
Personally, the only DeFi I do is staking my ETH with Rocketpool. Since then, I have received on average one type of dusting attack per month. I am being sent everything from tokens to entire scam NFTs.
One particular attack had me properly alarmed, the outgoing transaction notification showing tokens that never existed in my wallet being transferred out. It almost gave me a heart attack thinking I had my wallet drained.
Before we enter the mass adoption phase for ETH, we need some kind of prevention method for the average user who unknowingly tries to send these tokens away.
What are your thoughts?
