Thanks for the explanation, I get it now.

Can someone explain this article in more simpler terms (maybe with examples/pictures?) I'm confused on how this makes it easier to track wallet addresses to IP addresses.

More specifically the following:

Entities conducting blockchain analytics may use dust to deanonymize users and their wallet addresses. The idea is to create enough deterministic links between the analysis firm’s wallets and the recipient addresses. Once these links are created, the firm can run analysis using the data it collects to trace IP addresses to the recipient wallets.

“When the dust is consolidated with the user’s other funds, it helps with chain analytics by making it easier to cluster addresses,”

MS69 for .135 BTC - If you're interested @ that price. Not an interesting serial number. Funded in Nov 2017, so no forks. US Shiping included.

Curious question for the couriers... Would you have to legally declare this coin if you're travelling with it internationally as the value is over $10,000?

You're not sure if the goons seized them or not? Before or after the mixing efforts?
Can you link the news or infos please?

https://www.forfeiture.gov/pdf/USSS/OfficialNotification.pdf

There's 100 BTC seized from one guy there. I searched 39.99988179 on Google and found 1 transaction around the same date so I assume they are the same.

You can guess on the topic.... or say we will insure it, but you can't..... PERIOD.  Sure the agent will tell you all you want to hear about providing coverage, but when you go to make a claim they will not cover ANY digital value.  It's a fact.  I highly recommend those of you dealing with high end coins to make yourself a bit more informed on this matter.  I have done my research, but no need to trust me... do your own. 

I think it depends who you talk to @ the post office. My friend is a postmaster with almost 10 years experience. He said if you can prove you paid XYZ for it (I explained it as a password to a digital safe) then they shouldn't deny the claim. It's digital property according to the IRS so I don't see how the USPS can consider to be something else.

Aw okay. No wonder I was so confused. So does it look like the secret service actually got the coins or no? Or is it just too hard to track manually because of the mixing service?
173  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Where did these Bitcoins end up? on: May 29, 2020, 06:46:23 PM
Tracking Ether transactions is easy....but I have no idea how to track Bitcoin transactions, I'm curious where these 99.99 BTC end up.

Full Disclosure: These were seized by the US Secret Service which is where the curiosity comes from.

Edit: Forgot to add the address lol

A few folks have asked for some more information regarding shipping and insurance, as well as for some more photos.

Someone asked about the photos, they appear to show a scratch, and whether or not the scratch is on the coin or the air-tite, and it's on the air-tite.  I took the coin out of the holder and took the following additional photos: https://postimg.cc/gallery/44Bj3LD

As to shipping and insurance, UPS offers high value goods shipping which includes options to insure up to $100,000 for international shipments, or up to $150,000 for domestic (USA).  If someone bids on this coin and wins, I would be more than happy to cover the cost of the insurance (winner still pays the $30 domestic shipping fee, or international shipping fee. I will cover insurance): https://upscapital.com/product-services/high-value-goods-parcel-pro/

Insurance does not cover the digital value...   even private insurances have disclaimers about this.

Have you ever had to file a claim?

USPS Website States:

Proof of Value, Replacement, or Repair Costs

"The final or complete transaction sheet indicating the amount deducted from an Internet account to pay for the item."

Would a Bitcoin transaction that includes the USD at the time of the transaction suffice for this?

Would these fall under their "gift card" category?

Hypothetical, has this been tested by you? How would it stand up against tear gas in a riot?

List A #2 please - Thanks!

Disregard, just missed the requirements. Good luck everyone!
Now I feel bad, since we did business in the past and I remember you as being really nice to deal with.
But I also feel I shouldn't change the rules on the fly too much. Will add an extra clause for these cases next time and sorry for now.

Simple solution, grant him 9 merit  Wink

Oops didn't see the 50 merit req

Okay, I changed it to "copper" OR 50 merit - I just want to ensure it's not an obvious farme-posts and bounty account.
So you can participate, let me know which number you want please.

Thanks Smiley
