  The pin limit exceeded error is an important security measure in digital currency wallets. When this error occurs, it means that the user has entered the wrong pin code multiple times, triggering a temporary lockout. This lockout is designed to protect the wallet from unauthorized access and potential theft. By limiting the number of pin attempts, the wallet reduces the risk of brute-force attacks, where an attacker systematically tries different pin combinations to gain access to the wallet. If the pin limit is exceeded, it is a clear indication that someone is attempting to gain unauthorized access to the wallet. In such cases, it is crucial for the user to take immediate action to secure their funds, such as contacting customer support, changing the pin code, and reviewing the wallet's security settings.
