Title: Hundreds of 0.00777 BTC transfers on Feb 6th
Post by: pblack4 on March 27, 2014, 09:32:27 PM
Has anyone checked this address?

https://blockchain.info/address/12Nxd2X12WZeYSjUcbtm5NpS3d81Yh8sKh

there are many transfers of 0.00777 BTC to addresses containing thousands of coins


The weird thing is that all these transfers occurred on Feb 6th before Mtgox suspended withdrawals


Another suspect thing is that this seems to be a mtgox customer. The following deposit and withdrawals from the leaked db seem to match exactly this address:

e9ceb1e2-0497-427b-aca0-4f8e6aa2018a,557fe7d5-e199-474f-a1c0-6b2d05d568ae,"2014-02-05 23:18:00",deposit,43.3
e9ceb1e2-0497-427b-aca0-4f8e6aa2018a,0d807f90-23a3-46d2-80d7-5c2addfda825,"2014-02-06 17:33:42",withdraw,-1


Any clue?

I believe it was something to do with marking coins related to the SR theft?

According to the discussions about the Silk Road 2 hack these were by the hacker who created this mess, but this all speculative.  More info http://www.deepdotweb.com/2014/02/18/alleged-silk-road-2-0-hacker-doxxed/

Basically the alleged story is that he was tracked down by the guys on the Silk Road.  He was a developer at Silk Road, so probably was an early adopter of Bitcoin and after the attack on Gox and the Silk road now has a few thousand more coins, but if true, this guy is in deep shit (with authorities or the communities of black marketplaces) as his address and entire private info was posted.

It's indeed very probable that:
- one person have multiple addresses which have >=100 BTC and he still spends his time with faucets to grow those amounts by <0.01 BTC
- several different people have one or more addresses which have >=100 BTC and they still spend their time with faucets to grow those amounts by <0.01 BTC
