Title: Please explain Bitcoin-Qt spending algorithm Post by: mnyonpa on August 16, 2013, 11:51:52 PM Good day!
Recently, I have received on one of my wallets 50 satoshis payment from an unknown address, which might be used to find out my other Bitcoin addresses if I spend them. I am using Bitcoin-Qt for the address that received the payment. My question is the following: Provided I keep my payments are always rounded to 5 digit can I guarantee that those 50 satoshis transaction never gets spent? Are there any other ways to isolate these coins, maybe send them specifically to another address?

Code: bitcoind listreceivedbyaddress Then: Code: bitcoind dumpprivkey <bitcoinaddress> Then I would import the private key in blockchain.info or Electrum to send the rogue input somewhere else. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_Calls_list Title: Re: Please explain Bitcoin-Qt spending algorithm Post by: Birdy on August 17, 2013, 12:21:56 AM Possibilities:
1)Use Coin Control to ignore it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=144331.0 Send all other coins to somewhere else, delete the wallet.dat, open bitcoin-qt again and it will create a new wallet without those coins. 1b) without Coin Control: send the amount in your wallet -50 satoshis&fee somewhere else, delete the wallet.dat, open bitcoin-qt again and it will create a new wallet without those coins. (not sure if it will not select the 50 satoshis though, but imo it shouldn't) 2) make a raw transaction with those coins 3) Use Coin Control and mix it up with some transactions where it doesn't matter if every adress is known by someone else Title: Re: Please explain Bitcoin-Qt spending algorithm Post by: mnyonpa on August 17, 2013, 01:12:31 AM Thank you, I’ll try it.
