You might be able to achieve a rough estimate if you do some cluster analysis on transactions, looking for which transactions from separate addresses eventually collide into a single address or group of addresses that are closely related. This might give you some indication of which addresses are grouped in a wallet or controlled by the same entity.
In the (not too?) distant future, I expect law enforcement will seek these kinds of tools for criminal transaction analysis. Can you imagine a time when they present a blockchain analysis to a judge to secure a signed warrant? You know... assuming we in the United States have any sort of Fourth Amendment rights at that point.
I've been wondering about how they got the warrant to seize bitcoins in this case: http://www.dailydot.com/business/11-bitcoins-seized-government-dea/Apparently they already have something compelling enough for a seizure? I'm sure there was no warrant for the seizure is just as the article said, a honeypot on Silk Road or the computer itself was seized and there happened to be bitcoins on it and the news media twisted it to say the coins had been seized |

Finally put my code up on github. https://github.com/uncle-bob/quarkcoin-cpuminerI'm looking for suggestions or ideas. Groestl-Hash seem to be the deal breaker right now. It's taking up as much time as all other 5 hashes combined. Any speed up for Groestl would be a win. Currently the V1 release confuses the compiler slightly less and is a smidgen faster. However I think this code is currently the best option for speeding up beyond that. It's still around twice as fast as the default miner. Added bonus, almost everything for quark now fits a single function. While it won't fit on a GPU until the code size is reduced and memory is shrunk, it's just yet. Consider this my last update for cpuminer. I wrote this cause I'm greedy, and so I leave my tipjar. BTC: 1DaSUSqcr13G4QJYamsecW6yHh95QTT39R QRK: QQRNpg7aGHcvgEFvXEk1DoCtLydboVsAzf I cannot get it to compile. I'm on Ubuntu 13.04 and I get stuck at: "checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes ./configure: line 5534: syntax error near unexpected token `,' ./configure: line 5534: `LIBCURL_CHECK_CONFIG(, 7.15.2, ,'" Any help would be appreciated. I had the same error when compiling quark itself it is due to curl not being properly installed A fix can be found here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4823.0Edit: Or install libcurl-dev  |

Mmmerlin, I do not know much about the parameters as I only use a laptop with a single gpu but I recall having trouble with driver versions

Sorry for asking a question that's probably already been answered but I have looked a bit and this thread is very long.
Anyway, I'm trying to run on Win7 x64, I can run the plain vanitygen binary no problem, but the oclvanitygen gives me the LLVM ERROR problem. What is the latest on this? Is it a Catalyst problem? If not what are the causes?
I have on 6950 and one 7950 and it doesn't seem to run on either... Any tips for a total n00b would be very much appreciated!
The catalyst control center 13 and associated drivers has trouble running vanitygen you must downgrade to version 12.8 |

Nine character non-caps patterns arn't so hard to find. Now try and find a 13+ character "1" pattern short address. What do you mean by 13+ 1 pattern short address? I think he is talking 13 or more 1's in a row, at least that's what I get out of it. |

Yea, but I would like to do some other stuff with this server too. It is a server on wich I connect via ssh. Run it in a screen. Sudo apt-get install screen
Screen ./vanitygen <params>
Ctrl+A, D <- detach from current screen
Screen -list <- list running screens
Screen -r # <- resume a previously active screen where # is number before the . from list above (123.something)

Anyone able to get payout from this pool? My shares has not been get paid so far. 50 kh/s received shares for first hour, 46 blocks, but then they stopped coming so I went back to solo for now |
|
|
|
That is called luck Maybe if they had 51 of the last 100 blocks I would be more concerned or if this "pattern" were to continue |

Why does this turn me on..?  Because I would actually enjoy this. PM me with your home adress.  Well, this is getting kinky.  And we are getting quite far from the original topic, this thread started very professional and now it is going the opposite |

I saw the footnote and the only mistake I noticed was point 11 "Can teh readers"
Another well written post although it would be better if you addressed the points after you listed them, being such a long post I had a hard time remembering what each point was in reference to

All other of my facts that you speak of as if false that I have made are correct as far as we are concerned.
"Correct as far as we are concerned" What does that mean? I thought we were talking facts here and aren't they always true otherwise they are no longer a fact. |

Much better report than the "other" thread that intended to distribute the same information in a more hate fueling manner.
We must have faith, maybe he went on vacation for 2 weeks and didn't want to say "hey guys I'm going to be gone for a while why don't you all go rob my house"

This is a funny community everything is a scam until proven otherwise.
Personally I would like to see consistent up time and fast page loading times.
The gambling category of services must be "provably fair" which does not apply here due to the lack of chance but rather pure skill.
If players are to keep a balance on the website 2 factor authentication is needed to prevent unauthorized withdrawals or bets.
I'm not sure what else you could do beside continue onward and overtime build trust within the community
