The Litecoin blockchain network has experienced a dusting attack, stated Binance on Twitter.
Dusting attack is a type of attack which based on a big amount of transactions with an extremely small amount of coins or tokens in order to break user's privacy.
The main idea of a dusting attack is to track the movement of a small number of cryptocurrencies in order to identify the user.
Previously the Litecoin network experienced halving at block 1,680,000. From now on, miners who mine a block in the Litecoin network will receive a 12.5 LTC reward instead of the 25 LTC they had been receiving so far.
