Just got hit with a wallet address poisoning attack—someone sent me a whole dollar in random tokens. Got me thinking though... what if this actually scaled? Like, how many wallets stacked with different tokens would you need to sustain a full-time income just from dealing with dust attacks? Obviously the math probably doesn't work out, but it's wild how many people don't even notice when their addresses get flooded with junk tokens. The real question is whether these micro-spams are just annoying noise or actual security red flags worth tracking. Either way, it's a reminder that managing crypto addresses is more chaotic than it should be.

Haha, hilarious. A worthless token worth one dollar can also come with a scam plan. Web3 truly has endless creativity.

nah this is exactly how systemic risk compounds though—nobody tracks the correlation matrix until it's too late. dust attacks seem like noise until they're part of a larger deanon vector, then suddenly your "harmless" token spam is tied to your whole transaction history. seen this pattern before, people sleeping on protocol vulnerabilities while arguing about yield optimization lmao

nah this is just like mile 15 of the ultra—annoying but not the actual wall yet. real question is whether the ecosystem even cares enough to fix it

Haha, can dust attacks still make money? I'm actually curious to know who can make a living off this.
