No, your wallet hasn't been compromised. It depends on what you're trying to do, but I usually just decrease the amount I'm trying to send by a little bit, and it goes through just fine. There are multiple reasons on why you're seeing the error though:

Thank God it hasn't. I have other cryptos in that wallet, it would be devastating if it was compromised. I quoted this part of the article you provided, from what I understand here it's possible that the bitcoins I have in my custody may just be impossible to spend.

With Bitcoin (BTC) 5.0k and other so-called UTXO-based coins, small amounts of UTXOs can accumulate (as the result of change from earlier sent payments), which, combined with higher fees, may result in a portion of balance impossible to spend.

How do you fix this? Has my wallet been compromised?

You can use the coin control feature by importing the wallet into Electrum desktop or blue wallet for smartphone but if you want a fix without importing the wallet then here it is.

Send what is possible using Max Amount, with default fee setting. This will leave the small UTXOs, but send out the non-dust ones.

Unable to Send due to Dust Error

If you still, can't then your wallet balance is only filled with dust UTXOs that can't be sent at the current fee rate.

Import your seed phrase on Electum tomseldn your coins.

If you are not still able to spend your coins. Click on view -> check ✔️ coins. On the GUI, click on coins -> right click and freeze the UTXOs that are very small to spend from before making transaction. Or select to spend on the UTXOs which are not dust and use them to make a transaction.

If you are using a mobile phone. Download Bluewallet. Import the sed phrase. Click on the wallet which is in blue, click on send -> the three dots at the upper right corner -> coin control. You can select UTXOs which are not dust to spend from.

If you want to be using open source wallet and leave close source Trustwallet, better to generate another seed phrase , keys and addresses on the open source wallet instead of using the imported seed phrase which is generated on a close source wallet.

The issue could be as a result of you either using a low transaction fee to send out your funds to another wallet, or the transaction can still be unconfirmed in the blockchain. I will advise you to move your wallet to a more friendly one, like BlueWallet or Ethereum. You might be exposing your seed phrase to two different wallets, but you're better off.

This is not entirely true, because trustwallet it self gives you the highest priority fees and as such it can’t be a as a result of low fees paid if not this won’t be the error. The error is as a result of the transaction fee + the amount he intended to send been more than the total amount in the wallet. He has more than a single UTXOs and the amount left after his intended amount to send wouldn’t be enough to cover for the fees. He should recalculate the total the fees and then reduce the amount to send to cover for the transaction fees

It could also be as a result of sending the maximum amount in your wallet while using the default transaction fee. Which can't go through because the transaction fee is higher than what is left in the wallet so it will show error when the transaction fee can't be afforded due to low balance. Or sometimes you can be sending small amount with the default transaction fee which is still very high hence probably impossible to send.

You can read through the link provided by @OmegaStarScream it will be more clear to you with image description in that link.

Mind you it's a frequent case in trust wallet you're not compromised.

To start with, trust wallet is not a safe wallet to use. Second, secondly this is the issue that trust wallet users have been complaining about, which I have come across a few times now in this forum, and one of my friends was also affected.

The issue could be as a result of you either using a low transaction fee to send out your funds to another wallet, or the transaction can still be unconfirmed in the blockchain. I will advise you to move your wallet to a more friendly one, like BlueWallet or Ethereum. You might be exposing your seed phrase to two different wallets, but you're better off.

Just try importing your wallet to BlueWallet or Electrum and making your transaction through any of those wallets.

Hi bitcointalk, I have been trying to send my bitcoins from my trust wallet but I keep getting an error message. Something about dust UXTO error. This is the first time I'm encountering this problem. I suspected it had something to do with the hike in fees so I reduced the amount but I still get the same result. How do you fix this? Has my wallet been compromised?
