Title: Question concerning site identifying bitcoin addresses/forum members Post by: irb on October 05, 2011, 11:04:19 PM This is a little weird, and I was hoping for some advice. I was going through a webserver's referrer logs today and this site came up: http://pastehtml.com/view/ayrpygp5m.html It's a list of what appears to be forum userIDs, bitcoin hashes, and websites where available. I saved a copy in case it goes away, but I am curious to know why this is there or of what interest this information would be to somebody. Thanks, /i. P.S. The IP that made the request with the pastehtml referrer was 188.29.94.119, which seems to be London, UK.

I'm happy with moving it if that's the consensus.

That's why I have 1 of my addresses designated for "Donations" and it's the only one I publicly post.
