Ethereum's network activity has surged, potentially due to address dusting attacks exploiting reduced gas fees. The number of new addresses has soared to 2.7 million, a 170% increase from typical levels, with daily transactions surpassing 2.5 million. The Fusaka upgrade, which cut transaction fees by over 60%, has facilitated these large-scale spam attacks. Currently, 3.8 million addresses have received dust assets in their initial transaction, representing 67% of new addresses. To date, 116 victims have suffered losses exceeding $740,000.
