Title: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: Silas James Reel on October 23, 2014, 01:05:51 AM I use an address SPECIFICALLY for faucets, and I only use it for faucets. Mysterious BTC is showing up.
http://img.thegt.org/29/tmp_1.png I know these are not associated with any faucet. I never give out that address. (No you smart***es, my sig is not my faucet address. It's my donation one) But hey, I'm not complaining.

any message? Title: Re: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: Silas James Reel on October 23, 2014, 01:13:55 AM no
Title: Re: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: acs267 on October 23, 2014, 01:28:27 AM no It mostly likely is advertising, or, interest (I've never used MW, so I don't know.) I'm going to go with advertising. Probably when you were making a transaction they saw your address, of course.

According to his personal text he owns bitcoingenie so have you used that?

It doesn't look like blockchain.info, but similar. Have or can you you look at the actual addresses? If you search on the forums here or on google you might get some hits.

That is microwallet, which is not really a wallet but a micropayment cache for grouping your faucet payments. Title: Re: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: Kprawn on October 23, 2014, 11:57:59 AM Are you using more than one faucet?
Many of them link the address from different faucets you use to one micro wallet address. So you might see deposits being made for previous faucets you used. ;D Title: Re: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: Finchy on October 23, 2014, 12:02:34 PM Keeping an address to yourself or just for faucet payments doesn't mean people wont be able to spam it with payments. Once you use your address it's recorded on the blockchain and bots can then find it to spam you with. Happened before and it'll happen again, though those payments you recieved will most likely be just from some other faucets.

In fact, microwallet payment is offchain (until you balance reaches the min payout) and so the transaction spam has nothing to do with the mysterious microwallet payment...

Happened before and it'll happen again, though those payments you recieved will most likely be just from some other faucets. It's basically a wallet which allows faucet owners to send small amount of money to the people who claim faucet without fees and the system will group them together and combine all the micropayments into one and send to your address once you reach a certain threshold. It is like a online wallet but they don't allow deposits from blockchain.Title: Re: Mysteriously getting bitcoins at my Microwallet.org account Post by: BigBill on October 23, 2014, 01:07:58 PM Maybe someone is using the same machine and using another faucet ?

In that context, I guess you meant Blockchain, or you meant "...but they don't allow deposits from the blockchain." Which would be even more confusing. Since, Bitcoin is basically built- I rather not babble on.
