They fact that they didn't file for bankruptcy yet makes me think the story might actually be true..

Because, clearly, these are Captains of Industry 2.0: they have more identities than a drug dealer has burner phones.

Wanna know why Cryptsy was the only exchange listing Lucky7Coin? Volume? No. Popularity? Bwha! No, it's was purposely installed as a measure to keep the money. IMO the only reason we're hearing from Big Vern now is because a civil suit was filed.

I found the solution (if somebody will search). You need to use BIP44 derivation path: m/44'/0'/0' and child keys with def 0/0, 0/1, etc. instead of m/44'/0'/0'/0 & 0,1,2,etc.

I'm 99% certain you can use:

Code:
m/44'/0'/0'/0/0, m/44'/0'/0'/0/1 etc
3  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Pybitcointools txhash function, and SIGHASH_ALL = 0 on: August 10, 2015, 01:50:14 PM
How does this work?

Code:
txh = "01000000010276b76b07f4935c70acf54fbf1f438a4c397a9fb7e633873c4dd3bc062b6b40000000008c493046022100d23459d03ed7e9511a47d13292d3430a04627de6235b6e51a40f9cd386f2abe3022100e7d25b080f0bb8d8d5f878bba7d54ad2fda650ea8d158a33ee3cbd11768191fd004104b0e2c879e4daf7b9ab68350228c159766676a14f5815084ba166432aab46198d4cca98fa3e9981d0a90b2effc514b76279476550ba3663fdcaff94c38420e9d5000000000100093d00000000001976a9149a7b0f3b80c6baaeedce0a0842553800f832ba1f88ac00000000"
 
>>> hexlify(bin_dbl_sha256(unhexlify(txh))[::-1])
'c99c49da4c38af669dea436d3e73780dfdb6c1ecf9958baa52960e8baee30e73'
 
>>>fetchtx('c99c49da4c38af669dea436d3e73780dfdb6c1ecf9958baa52960e8baee30e73') == txh
True

txh is the test vector (for TxID c99c49da4c38af669dea436d3e73780dfdb6c1ecf9958baa52960e8baee30e73);

Isn't that impossible? It's signing the Tx structure which has the scriptSig in it; usually the scriptSig is replaced by the scriptpubkey for signing

Heuristic1: Grouping all the input addresses of transactions to the same cluster.
No, because CoinJoin.

Heuristic2: Grouping the change addresses (shadow addresses) to the same cluster of the input addresses.
How do you distinguish change addresses form normal outputs?

Quote
What I want to do is to develop another heuristic. So far I am thinking to group addresses based on its transaction patterns.

Such as peeling chain, or the addresses that distributed bitcoin to many other addresses and converge in the end.

Is there any other transaction patterns that we can identify its ownership?

It is just the initial idea. Any idea, advice or relative works would be appreciated Smiley
Problem is, most addresses are used only once. Especially now that pretty much every wallet is HD.

How does walletexplorer.com do it? Has there been any discussions in the past?

Is there a RESTful API which returns raw data (for Python)?

While we're on the subject: what are the best APIs for Bitcoin, nowadays?

I find Blockr to be the best, whilst webbtc is quite useful. APIs which handle testnet are preferred.
8  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Pybitcointools txhash function, and SIGHASH_ALL = 0 on: August 06, 2015, 07:48:11 AM
pybitcointools has a txhash function which returns the singable form of a transaction, with SIGHASH appended.

However the code returns a reversed hash without the appended SIGHASH bytes for SIGHASH=None, as seen here: https://github.com/vbuterin/pybitcointools/blob/master/bitcoin/transaction.py#L177-L178

Code:
def txhash(tx, hashcode=None):
    if isinstance(tx, str) and re.match('^[0-9a-fA-F]*$', tx):
        tx = changebase(tx, 16, 256)
    if hashcode:
        return dbl_sha256(from_string_to_bytes(tx) + encode(int(hashcode), 256, 4)[::-1])
    else:
        return safe_hexlify(bin_dbl_sha256(tx)[::-1])


That doesn't seem right; is it?

Also, how is a SIGHASH_ALL value of zero (rare case) calculated? (See this related SE question)

Is it just changing the 00 to 01?

14  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Using Pycoin to spend non-standard scripts on: July 21, 2015, 04:15:28 AM

Basically you have to override
Code:
sign(tx,i,priv,hashcode)
You want to change line 341 of transaction.py so that it accepts an input script.  You need to feed it the scriptPubKey of the UTXO you are spending.
Code:
    signing_tx = signature_form(tx, i, '<utxo_scriptPubKey>', hashcode)

Then you need to sign the transaction with pubkey 042d...d17c, and copy the sig into "sig1", then sign the transaction with pubkey 0330...f63f, and copy the sig into "sig2".  

Finally your non-standard scriptSig is:
Code:
<sig1>
<sig2>
I've done it on the "Hello World" example I did above, but the code is kinda ugly.

Let me clean it up and I'll write a pybitcointools implementation to spend the coin.

Ah ha! OK, that makes perfect sense. I'll try it out.

There's a fork of pybitcointools which is updated more often here. One of the issues I've encountered with pybitcointools is the DER encoding; the fork checks for DER encoding, whereas the original pybitcointools isn't even BER in some instances (eg if the r or s value has the leading bit set and is less than 2**255, the encoding doesn't prepend nullbytes)

OP_CHECKSIG

So its a master key, which is sha256("master"*42)

Yep... there is a bug in there somewhere...

Try the following
Code:
from bitcoin import *
serialize_script(deserialize_script('ac'))
---
RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object

Yeh, I often run scripts on iOS Pythonista, and there's a lot of recursion errors that come up since by default the recursion depth is 256; so setting sys.setrecursiondepth(512) often works in that environment.

The pybitcointools bug is strange because the code serializes multisig scripts, but there's a bug with the CHECKMULTISIG; so instead of serializing the 'ae', it just appends 'ae' to the end of the returned string.

I am looking at using this code:

Code:
def mk_script(*args):
    # lst = ['76', 'a9', '14', 'dd6cce9f255a8cc17bda8ba0373df8e861cb866e', '88', 'ac']
    if len(args) == 1 and isinstance(args[0], (list, tuple))
        lst = list(args[0])
    elif len(args) > 1 and all(map(lambda o: isinstance(o, str), args)):
        lst = [args]
    else:
        lst = [changebase(str(x), 10, 16, 2) if isinstance(x, (int, long)) else x for x in args]
   
    llens = [len(changebase(x, 16, 256, 1)) for x in lst]    # byte lengths
    lint = map(lambda h: decode(h, 16), lst)                 # list as ints
   
    asm = 0xff
    for i in range(len(lint)):
        asm = asm << (8*llens[i]) | lint[i]
   
    asmhex = "0x" + encode(asm, 16, (sum(llens) + 1)*2)
    final = asmhex.partition('0xff')[-1]
    return final

How would I go about tweaking this code to avoid the manual addition of push20?


ie. I want to use
Code:
mk_script(['76', 'a9', 'dd6cce9f255a8cc17bda8ba0373df8e861cb866e', '88', 'ac'])
... instead of
Code:
mk_script(['76', 'a9', '14', 'dd6cce9f255a8cc17bda8ba0373df8e861cb866e', '88', 'ac'])
(note the "14"  preceding the pubkeyhash, which acts as push 20 bytes).

I'd prefer to avoid using the push bytes
18  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Using Pycoin to spend non-standard scripts on: July 18, 2015, 08:49:12 AM
I never realized there was a serialize_script method.  I was simply thinking of the serialize(tx_dict).  I was thinking you would right your own (or overwrite) the serialize_script method.  I mean there are less than 100 op codes right?[/size]

Yeah, that's certainly do-able. I'll fork the pybitcointools library and see how I go with it.

I've been looking at Peter Todd's python-bitcoinlib and Richard Kiss' Pycoin, mainly because the classes are much more powerful for playing around with scripting, SIGHASH, etc. That being said, the OOP for python-bitcoinlib tries to emulate the Core software naming conventions, and it's really complicated.

If anyone else can provide a single example of a non-standard script Tx using Pycoin/python-bitcoinlib, I'd really appreciate it.


d4n13: Thanks for the input, I'll look at trying this with pybitcointools
19  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Using Pycoin to spend non-standard scripts on: July 18, 2015, 06:41:04 AM
How would I use Pycoin to play around with non-standard scripts like this? Alternatively, pybitcointools.
Writing a Script "compiler" in python should be very straight forward.  PyBitcoinTools will parse out the scripts with deserialize, then you take the Script 'asm' and write a decompiler.

If you then put the 'asm' data back in the dict and serialize with pybitcointools you should be good to go.

Thanks for the reply!

I'm really familiar with pybitcointools, so I can certainly see how your suggestion works. However, the issue is when using serialize_script; namely, if you've got objects (like a pubkey), the serialize_script method doesn't add push codes for the size of the object.

Ie:

Code:
my_script = serialize_script([OP_foo, OP_bar, "20byte_pubkey_hash", OP_spam])

myscript will return 11 22 01234567890123456789 33 instead of 11 22 14 01234567890123456789 33

I believe SIGHASH_SINGLE returns empty scripts, which hash to 1
