Title: A payment I got is not confirming? Post by: Boelens on May 19, 2013, 08:15:53 PM Hey there,
for some reason a few hours ago I randomly got sent 0.000004 BTC, I checked the blockchain and this was sent to hundreds of addresses with a total of 0.22BTC, no idea why. However it's been standing unconfirmed in my wallet for hours now, with other transaction confirmign just fine. How does this come? Title: Re: A payment I got is not confirming?

I don't think they paid a fee, therefore it will take forever. I'm trying to find out who owns this address and why they have sent this. Title: Re: A payment I got is not confirming?

I tried figuring it out too, but I didn't find anything. I wasn't surprised as for the past three weeks every day/ few days someone has been sending me a few satoshis. I seriously wonder why this is done though, maybe to slow down confirmations or something? I don't know much about this. Title: Re: A payment I got is not confirming?

Maybe so, I was wondering for a few minutes if I had sold anything months ago and forgot about it. But, then I went through everything and I didn't. I then looked for more information on the address, and I realised that it sent more Bitcoins like this to others. Maybe, somebody just thought "Hey, I'll be generous today and give these guys a Bitcoins". I guess we can call our self lucky? It's not much, but it's still something.

I still do wonder who is sending me a few satoshis every now and then. Title: Re: A payment I got is not confirming? Post by: scintill on May 19, 2013, 10:28:22 PM I had this happen, but it was from a pay-to-click site's address tagged in blockchain.info. (I never went to that site.) So maybe someone is sending out satoshis randomly.
