I don't get it. If you generated it offline how can you receive transactions? Is it alright so some one is tracing me? my address: Code: 1G69v39caF6i2HoMfVvtTm2ow1kWNi3xEv regards, oKsana28 In any case, if you receive random bitcoins, never sent a joint transaction with that input. Use coin control so you never mix your coins with those coins. Since they are dust, just ignore it. If you randomly recieved a lot more btc, thats another story.

Perhaps the aren't using properly random private key generation and they generated the same address for someone else? Until I understood what happened, I'd probably not use that address for anything at all (and probably stop using coinb.in).

Perhaps the aren't using properly random private key generation and they generated the same address for someone else? Try this: send inputs 0.0015 to its own address to one output.

Addresses are only kept private until they are used. Once a transaction has been successfully confirmed on the blockchain, the address is publicly known. You cannot prevent people from spamming your address, generation offline makes no difference. |
