Title: Holy crap that was a large transaction Post by: 2tights on January 05, 2014, 06:04:19 PM Every so often I bitlisten.com
Just now, I saw the biggest transaction that I've ever seen. I know there have been larger ones, but I haven't seen them. It was 10,200.80 BTC (i think, but I by be a few off) I'm not that knowledgable about tracing bitcoin transactions on the blockchain, but I'm going to dive in to see if I can follow the story of the wallet this huge transaction was sent from as well as the wallet that it was sent to. Wow. Does anyone who researches these have any thoughts on this transaction?nnn Mod note: link changed to bitlisten, listentobitcoin contains malware (http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ia7q2/listen_to_bitcoin_contains_malware/?sort=top) Title: Re: Holy crap that was a large transaction Post by: black_swan on January 05, 2014, 06:08:27 PM Maybe it was from an exchange or payment processor moving some coins from cold storage.
Or maybe the NSA managed to bruteforce somebody's key :P Title: Re: Holy crap that was a large transaction Post by: Bitcoinpro on January 05, 2014, 06:11:45 PM who would move such a large amount in one transaction
seems rather foolish Title: Re: Holy crap that was a large transaction Post by: black_swan on January 05, 2014, 06:13:51 PM I checked on blockchain.info and blockexplorer.com but I can't see anything for 10200.80 in the last 2 hours, are you sure?

Are you stating $ for a reason? Although I am certain of this amount, shortly after there was another very large transaction but I didn't see the amount.

Either way, the large transaction is probably an exchange website moving things around. Title: Re: Holy crap that was a large transaction Post by: mpattison on January 05, 2014, 07:30:07 PM Was there not a transaction worth 30,000+ BTC a few days ago?
