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?

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.
