Did you send him the coins directly or did you use a 2 of 3 multisig address?
Maybe he has decided to move them to cold storage or something. Or maybe he has decided to go rogue and scam others as well, doubtful he would risk his reputation for a small amount of BTC although I haven't seen the feedback myself. Just because he has trust from users on the DefaultTrust list doesn't mean he is trustworthy as the trust system isn't moderated, you need to only count feedback from people whos opinion you trust.
Post his username, he won't mind if he is honest.

Perhaps nodes could have an optional donation address config option. You could connect to a node and ask for its donation address. People who want to donate to nodes would have a piece of software that monitors a node or number of nodes uptime and if it is satisfactory it will request their donation addresses and send a donation.
Wouldn't be too difficult to implement, though I'm not sure how many people would be willing to donate.

I play online poker and would do transfers with people where i transfer them BoA through online transfer and then i get poker funds. I however read that boa is actually reversible. Is this true or false? I know paypal and chase quickpay are reversible but i was always told boa and wells fargo wasn't.
I read that boa cash deposits can be reversed if they go back the same day. Is that true/false? What about wells fargo?
So basically the only thing that is not reversible is when someone send you a bank wire and once you receive it, they can't reverse it anymore?
No that is not the case. If the account has been hacked then the funds can be reversed. Additionally the funds can be reversed if they suspect illegal activity such as money laundering etc though that is not as common. |

I am running a full node with Bitcoin-qt on an ubuntu server (ARM based). The node seems to spin up fine and will start receiving incoming connections. I believe I have seen upwards to about 60 incoming connections. The problem is that after a couple of days the incoming connections will start to drop off. If I reboot my router (Asus RT-AC66U) then it will begin to receive incoming connections, yet after another couple of days they start to drop once again. If I check the status of my node at https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/#join-the-network, initially it will say that my node is up. When the connections begin to drop then that site will report that it can no longer connect to my node. Rebooting the router and it can connect once more. Can anyone give me some insight on what is happening and perhaps a way to correct this problem? I would like to continue running a full node but don't feel like bumping my router ever few days to do so. Thanks. Interesting problem. When you say the connections start to drop off, how low does the connection count go? |

I have been having problems getting RPC to work on a certain VPS to the point where I just reinstalled everything and started over. I have another installation on a smaller VPS running testnet perfectly but somewhere something got messed up on the new one (which is intended for a full bitcoin version). I can't switch the working testnet on the working VPS over to full version because the harddrive isn't big enough. I was able to get this new one to successfully run testnet and RPC this morning. I then changed the testnet=1 to testnet=0 in the bitcoin.conf file to switch over so now I have a long wait for the blockchain to download. So there really isn't a problem that needs fixing right now that anyone can help me with other than to ease my nerves with hopefully a good word of encouragement or some actual facts because, after I switched to running regular bitcoin from testnet in this new installation, the freakin RPC stopped working again. I am hoping it is because the block chain hasn't finished downloading. Can someone tell me that the incomplete blockchain is the issue so I can be at peace for the next 24 hours or am I back to square one without RPC working again? Thanks Hmm. I think the RPC should work with an incomplete blockchain. I haven't tried it directly with the RPC, but I can use bitcoin-cli when the blockchain is syncing. |

I'm sure he's had a fair few accounts nuked already and new ones probably will be too. What is he actually trying to achieve? Just getting traffic to his sites and selling/promoting an ebook?
That mainly looks like it. Maybe he is also trying to "crash" the BTC price to get cheap BTC, lol. It looks that way. Maybe he has a mental disorder, thats the impression I get anyway. Multiple personality disorder maybe? |

You don't have to pay much, but he could just sign up with a new proxy address each time. Whatever his game is it doesn't look like banning him is going to stop him anytime soon, but hopefully hell get bored eventually.
He'd have a hard time finding any proxies that aren't evil. Yes maybe he will, but I think mods should ban and remove all his FUD threads each time. That should expedite the situation. From what I can tell most of his FUD threads are still there. AFAIK, it's using specific IP addresses to prevent users. Blocking an IP range, especially in a residential sense, wouldn't be helpful imho, too much room for error, maybe blocking IP ranges of datacentres.
It doesn't block anything. It adds evil "points" to the IP and a smaller amount of evil "points" to every IP in the same range. The more evil your IP has when creating an account the more BTC you have to pay to sign up. Known proxies and Tor already have the max amount of evil too. |

I think most of accounts are banned. He's just obviously persistent.
Each time he gets banned the IP range he was using gets more "evil" and he has to pay more BTC to make new accounts thanks to theymos' nifty system. If he's being banned, surely all the money he's spending on accounts isn't making the FUD campaigns worth it? |

the interwebz should gather a great LOIC army to fire at first fbi.gov and then other US goverment websites as vendetta for this act
Denial of Service attacks against an informational websites are the wrong way to solve this. That will achieve nothing, their shitty website will go down for a brief amount of time and that'll be it. We should instead build software/tools to defend our privacy and fight back by making such kind of attacks impossible. Hopefully next time there won't be any email servers for them to hack because we'll have something better. why not?  we will show we're "more trouble then gain" aka. we won't be worth to take down, there will be more to lose then to gain Because somebody else will try the same thing. The FBI don't care if you DOS their site, it's just a website people go to to get information on the FBI, what they do etc. Why would they care? it doesn't inconvenience them in anyway - it's a waste of time, most people working in the FBI wouldn't even notice it was down or even care if they did notice. People have DOS'ed it before many times, nobody cared. Fight back by beating them at their own game. |

they should be sued for this
what ife they put malware in a user from the Netherlands buying weed on Silk Road
he's not doing anything illegal and the FBI doesn't have jurisdiction there
You are right, but sadly this is entirely legal for them to do. One of the websites they placed the javascript malware on was Tormail, a free webmail service that did not host anything illegal but was just hosted on the same server as kiddy porn sites. I had an email account there and was targetted by the malware yet I had done nothing wrong. Luckily I was unaffected by the malware though as I of course disable javascript when using Tor, but no doubt the FBI have read all of my unencrypted email there. After they were done with the malware they shut Tormail down. I had used the email address as a sign-up email address for lots of websites and it was a real pain to change them all. I didn't have the password for some of the accounts and had to abandon them and make new ones because I could no longer receive emails to my Tormail account. One of the accounts was a Bitcoin gambling website and I lost my balance there, it was small at the time but is probably worth a lot now. |

Please note that this attack was ONLY executed against people visiting Tor hidden services what's the difference? If you use Tor for browsing the internet, such as browsing bitcointalk.org or any "clearnet" website, you would not be affected by this attack. If you visited a hidden service like silkroadssdadgs.onion or any other .onion website you could've been de-anonymized, but the issue has been fixed so not anymore but similar kinds of attacks are still possible. |

So... I'm sure most of you have spotted this guy who uses the name "Sol Adoni" posting here. He is using TONS of sockpuppet accounts and posting links to websites that he owns pretending he is not the owner in an attempt to spread FUD. I'm too lazy to compile a definitive list of all of his websites and alts, but here is just a sample of the names he is posting under: 247bitcoinnewscom elix 2147483647L domaindealers ibitunes soladoni dr. adoni adoni banque ibitdeals ipoopbtc ibitdomains There are WAY more, too many to keep track of. Example of one of his threads: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=726993So, is there any action the mods can take against this kind of thing? He is like Atlas on steroids right now except much more annoying. He is quite literally cluttering up the entire forum right now. If we start banning him at least he'll have to pay each time he makes an account and he'll probably stop then. All the sockpuppetry is in vain anyways as you can clearly spot him. He often accidentally posts replies using the wrong account too. |

I don't think privacy defense going to work well in his case.
Even if it doesn't stick its highly likely that because of this the prosecutors will have to share the big secret - how they got access to the Silk Road servers. They've been keeping that a BIG secret up to now. It's possible they did something illegal to gain access and if they did it's a high possibility the case will be dismissed due to the "fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine": http://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/fruit_of_the_poisonous_treeEven if the government did something illegal, will the judge really let Ross walk free? If he is allowed to walk free, that will set an example to all the illegal and drug lord out there not to fear the government. He was simply 'lucky' this time I guess. They wouldn't go to unreasonable length to convict him. I bet the evidence was already quite a stretch and they knew it. They risked it and it didn't work, it wasn't recognized. That's the way it works. Oh he hasn't won the battle yet! Just to note: he has only made an argument. He is still in jail and still being charged, nothing has changed yet, we have to wait to see what the FBI's repsonse to this will be. |

They would have to because the evidence couldn't be used against him if it was obtained illegally and you cannot convict a man without any evidence, he is innocent until proven guilty and you can't prove him guilty with illegally obtained evidence. Drug dealers wouldn't not fear the government. The FBI would simply do everything by the book next time they catch someone doing similar. |

You're at MIT right?

Dear Sockpuppet guy, Please stop linking to your own fucking fake sites using your shit-ton of sockpuppet accounts. You're free to express your flawed opinion, but stop with all the sockpuppets we're sick of it - we can clearly see it's you. Read up on a user here named Atlas, thanks to him and his sockpuppetry all of us are capable of easily spotting alts. Sincerely, Everyone on BitcoinTalk and Reddit who sees through your charade. |
