Title: 0.0001459BTC Transactions from no where?
Post by: oldschool on September 08, 2012, 12:16:58 AM
I have several online, offline, android wallets and I also have a wallet on my computer, the official app that I leave running all the time just as a network node, I figure downloading and passing on the block chain is beneficial to the network.

I recently opened up my ports on my router so its jumped from 9 connections to 30-40 connections and recently I've been getting several very small transactions, every other day or so of around 0.0001 to 0.0003?

Is this some sort of kickback from leaving bitcoin connected 24hrs a day?  None of my online, offline or cellphone wallets are receiving these small transfers?

That's the current payout here: http://freebtc.com
/edit. or close anyway... it varies somewhat

Either you input your address there or someone else did it for you.

I wonder if I have a little BTC fairy going around and submitting my address to all the free bitcoin sites?  Now I'm curious who it might be?! hahahaha


Oh, and thanks for the quick and accurate response, makes more sense now!

Does anyone know if there will be these sorts of kickbacks at any point in the future?

I know its a very very VERY slim chance of someone generating the same key pair randomly, but has anyone documented or reported this happening?  I'll keep an eye on it for other activity....
