A dust attack means that the attacker sends a large amount of unwanted but valid junk transactions between accounts. If the transaction amount is 0, etc., a large number of transactions will cause the network to become congested and thus affect Ambr.

In Ambr design mode, the fee is designed to deal with this attack. When an attacker issues a transaction, he needs to pay a certain fee to issue the transaction. The result of this is that the attacker's attack cost is greatly increased so that the revenue is far less than the cost, greatly discouraging this type of attack.
