CoinVoice has learned that, according to Cointelegraph, security researcher Andrey Sergeenkov pointed out that recent Ethereum transactions and address activity have surged, possibly due to address poisoning attacks launched on a large scale using low Gas fees. The attack involves forging similar addresses to perform "dust attacks," tricking users into transferring funds to incorrect addresses. After the Fusaka upgrade, transaction fees dropped by over 60%, significantly reducing the cost of such attacks. Research shows that more than 116,000 people have been affected, with total losses exceeding $740,000.
