That's the thing about bitcoin. People understand the hashing of elaborate mathematical equations, but when it comes to something that should be standard in trading we get... (crickets)
Why? OP offered literally zero information, which exchange? Does it he mind using a piece of software to automate this? Etc... |

True...was more looking for a guideline...like 20% for restaurants, or $5 for the valet...that kind of thing. But I understand...just use your judgment...
Everytime I see someone tipping 20% at a restaurant I think "What the fuck?", then, realize the majority of people live in America where tipping is, for unknown reasons, standard. |

It is interfering with normal transactions. Maybe not everywhere but at least some operations.
No it does not. Please educate yourself before posting nonsense. These transactions will most likely never be confirmed anyways. They have no impact on the network. I think what he's saying is:- His client is using the MIN_OUTPUT size out (From 1Enjoy and any other addresses doing this), and, is using it as an input. As his transaction relies on the transaction that'll never be confirmed, his transaction also won't be confirmed. |

Is the person doing this manually though? It would take a lot of time to do this for little gain.
Obviously we can't tell for sure, but, the answer is 99.999% no, it's automated. |

This has happened before and it has stopped before. Don't panic.
Are you sure it's nothing malicious or anything to worry about? It's probably just spam. I don't see how it could be malicious. It is interfering with normal transactions. Maybe not everywhere but at least some operations. Does your client not order by transactions with most priority unless manually stated otherwise? I don't think 1*10^-8 will have a very large priority. Also, I'm feeling left out, no unknown transactions received, just donations, payments, and, outputs from a few of scripts I have running collecting BTC. EDIT:- Actually, I just realized I'm only connected to (From my house-hold) two (Self-owned) latest-version bitcoind applications with the 0.00005430 bitcoin minimum, so, many I have, but, they didn't relay them to me. Oh well. |

If one of the 3 or 4 big pools was bringing some BTC out of cold storage they would not need to have a fee to get it to complete in a reasonable time. They just need to keep putting the transaction in the next block they were solving until they solve a block. If you are one of the big 4 pools, that is going to happen pretty soon.
Or, you know, 41,700 BTC would mature like, instantly, and, you wouldn't have to have a fee anyway? |

Someone just paid off the 50% bomb at coinbomb.com; it might go a few more rounds... especially since it's a group buy. Insdice.us appears to be doing well also; I don't know of any others that are legit and consistently paying right now. Coinbomb is pretty fun, I have to admit. |

yay! free money!
Yay! $700 * 10^-8! |

I could make a spaceship if I wanted to, but I don't, so I won't. Sorry.
DeathAndTaxes beat both of us (And congratulations to him, I'm still sitting here like "How the fuck didn't I think of that?"), just rip 'em from the blockchain. Blockchain.info, blockexplorer, bitcoind, and all the rest already do it. |

That's effort though, it's not even a big project.
Um I already have a copy of every single address which has ever been used and it is continually kept up to date. So do you, so do over a hundred thousand other people on the planet. Wow. God dammit, well played good sir. |

Getting addresses isn't hard at all. I could write a Bitcoin address scraper in a few minutes, if I wanted too.
A few minutes? Base 58 would take me a few minutes to implement in of it's own. Regex my friend, regex. Regex doesn't check the parity of an address to verify it's valid, does it now?  Nope, but I don't care about that nor did I say that it does that  Bitcoind will get angry at you if you parse invalid addresses, so angry, it'll just simply refuse to process any of them. Getting addresses isn't hard at all. I could write a Bitcoin address scraper in a few minutes, if I wanted too.
Then write it, mister 'I can do everything'. That's effort though, it's not even a big project. |

Best advice? Wait.
Eventually one of two things will happen:-
1) A miner will finally accept it
2) Bitcoin clients will finally say "Fuck it" and stop broadcasting it

Dammit! Now I'll have to try Bing for at least a while...

Why don't news outlets write about things like this?
Would be much more interesting, inspiring, and promotional for Bitcoin than the nonsense they love to focus on.
Imagine an article discussing a 26 million dollar transaction with no fees.
Thats interesting.
Someone link Business Insider, the Verge, and Forbes Online to this thread.

"Welp, today we had a 41,700 BTC (~$29,190,000) transaction. Yup. Pretty much it. Oh? Who sent it? No idea. Who got it? Nup. No idea still. This is fun. Yup. Welp, it only took up 226 bytes, don't you wish you could brute force that? Haha. I do." |

Stop getting excited about the $102. It's not a big deal. It's just ONE successful buy order.
Here is exactly what happened:
1. MTGOX member 1 wants to sell Bitcoin.
2. MTGOX member 1 states his selling price. In this case, he inputs: $102
3. MTGOX member 2 wants to buy Bitcoin.
4. MTGOX member 2 selects: immediate buy
... MTGOX searches for cheapest buy offer.
5. MTGOX member 2 finds member 1's buy offer.
6. Transaction complete.
He could have sold 0.0002 bitcoin for all we know for $102 - and it would have still showed up Bitcoinwisdom.
Last I checked for bitcoin wisdom to actually show the drop on the chart (and not the 'last offer'), ALL buy orders up to that value have to be removed. |

Maybe they just don't care that the US government read their emails, its mostly spam or junk anyway.
This. The majority of my emails are just stuff like Youtube subscription notifications, or, me asking someone where they're going to be on XYZ and if they want to do ABC. Unless the NSA cares where I'll be on Feb 11th (Believe me, it's no where interesting, not planting any bombs or anything), then, they're shit out of luck. |

Really depends on how much they help you, I don't normally tip unless the person has:-
1) Saved me money
2) Helped me in a way I could/would have never found myself
In those cases, I normally tip ~ 20% of the amount they saved me for 1, assuming it was over a few dollars, and, a dollar or two for the latter.
