  One of the main challenges of using AI in fraud detection for digital currencies is the constantly evolving nature of fraudulent activities. Fraudsters are constantly coming up with new techniques and strategies to deceive the system, making it difficult for AI algorithms to keep up. Additionally, the lack of labeled training data specific to digital currency fraud poses a challenge for AI models to accurately detect fraudulent transactions. Furthermore, the complex and dynamic nature of digital currency transactions makes it challenging for AI algorithms to distinguish between legitimate and fraudulent activities.

  Using AI in fraud detection for digital currencies has its limitations. AI models heavily rely on historical data to make predictions, which means they may not be able to detect new and emerging fraud patterns. Moreover, AI algorithms can also produce false positives or false negatives, leading to either unnecessary investigations or missed fraudulent activities. Additionally, the computational power required to process large volumes of digital currency transactions in real-time can be a limitation for implementing AI-based fraud detection systems.
