This week on “Unexpected Downsides To #Cryptocurrency”:
Did you realize that you can’t reject #blockchain transactions and therefore anyone who wants to harass you can more or less freeze your “bank account” at an exchange like #Coinbase instantly just by either:
a) sending a euro through a sanctioned mixer service like #TornadoCash before sending it to you or
b) sending a few cents to a sanctioned terrorist wallet before sending you a single cent
The automated systems used by Coinbase will immediately notice that you have interacted with suspicious or sanctioned wallets and Coinbase, which, like all crypto companies, spends as little as possible on customer support, will lock your account until you produce a passport for the person who sent you that tiny amount of money (often for months).
These so called “dust attacks” constitute revolutionary new vectors in harassment.
Wait, the dusting attack problem has not been fixed?
It will be fixed in the next 18 months bro. Don’t worry bro.
Not your keys; Not your coins.
sounds like a cheap way to mess with crypto scammers, anybody got a spreadsheet?
If you don’t share your wallet codes or coinbase username I’m guessing you’re safe from this?
Prob yes, yes unless you reused your account name or they just randomly spray these dusting attacks.

it’s fucking weird you made an account just to post this tripe, but off you fuck anyway
Inb4 people go on a rant about cryptocurrency
inb4 people do exactly the thing this subsection of this website is intended for
Apparently they were out-b4 I could even see what they wrote.
I’ll respect their decision to voluntarily retract their crypto apologetics and not bore you with it. Just a bit funny to pre-empt anti-crypto rants on a forum called Buttcoin on a site called Awful Systems.
