Anyone experienced in dust attacks? #bitcoin. This one is posed as BRC20 txs, 546 sats with 5sat/vb that will never confirm or get purged. Two of these are sat in one of my wallets. Dusting started a week ago and it seems to be in long chain with over 200 other wallets. Best practice? Freeze and forget or pay the CPFP and burn? Hopefully a coincidence but my node seemed to have been spammed in some way. Went from 1TB to using the full 2TB within a day making it impossible to catch up to the chaintip. Anyone heard of this behaviour before? @ODELL Any help gratefully received.
Check your log files. The chain itself would not be filling up 2TB yet, not even with an electrum server indexer like electrs or fulcrum. I personally leave the dust attacks for later. Not worth spending at over 1 or 2 sat/vb as including in tx costs more.
