Abstract:

The decentralized cryptocurrency, formed by blockchain technology and cryptography, has been facing an increasing number of security attacks. Research on ensuring the security of cryptocurrency transactions has become a hot topic. The cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange and the encrypted wallets used for custody have become the focus of security research. Various key management and detection technologies have been developed to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the encrypted wallets. At the same time, researchers have also proposed corresponding detection and prevention strategies for security vulnerabilities and attack methods in centralized and decentralized exchanges. Additionally, potential attack types, detection techniques, and defense measures in cryptocurrency transactions have been comprehensively reviewed. Finally, a summary of the security of cryptocurrency transactions is provided, along with a forward-looking discussion on future development directions.
