Is this a private key?

[Chris!]

Seems to me it is. What do you think? Don't steal my riches. It took me 469 days to get this on these awesome things called 'faucets'. You should check them out. All of them.

that is a private key, leading to the public key of 1chrisgmp....

it contains only 5000sat and so costs more to send it anywhere then the funds contained in it..

but im sure someone is now happy to have your private key and just wait it out for fee's to decrease so they can raid your address before you can

oneday that 5000 sat will be worth more.. so someone will be happy for revealing your key, one day

Ding ding ding! We have a winner. Ya I didn't feel like going through exporting getting it on the different wallet, using it as a TX fee. Just sounded like a hassle for a few cents. Enjoy the 5500 Satoshi whoever decides to take them. This was just my first test vanity address.

This is an experiment to see how long it takes for someone to use them. Obviously with transaction fees over 10k Satoshi right now it'll have to be worth someone's while.

that's a private key. and it's not something you should be sharing.
why some users on this thread thought of it as an address even though it begins with a "5" is beyond me.

edit:
oh. games.

Very interesting. It reminds me of the days when there were bitcoiners rushing to claim the satoshis from stress test addresses.

I am sure they have written some script to sweep tiny amount like this.

[franky1]

It is just a bitcoin address. That is why there is a QR code above it, so you can scan it.

QR codes can hold any data. not just public keys..

showing a QR code is not to do with public keys related to only bitcoin...... but to do with a user friendly method to view ANY data



QR code = "noob fail"

Wow!! this is a real private key with bitcoins in it. However, I couldn't sweep it. Anyone who know how to get the bitcoin out? Not because the 55 bits worth anything, but just want to learn the know-how of it.

2 options.
1. wait for the confirmations to mature so that its no longer in the freshcoin zone requiring a fee.
2. wait for bitcoin prices to increase so that fee's decrease to then be profitable to move with a fee

How to know if it is no longer in the "freshcoin" zone?? Any where to check? Just learning.

Transaction priority is calculated as a value-weighted sum of input age, divided by transaction size in bytes:

priority = sum(input_value_in_base_units * input_age)/size_in_bytes

Transactions need to have a priority above 57,600,000 to avoid the enforced limit (as of client version 0.3.21). This threshold is written in the code as COIN * 144 / 250, suggesting that the threshold represents a one day old, 1 btc coin (144 is the expected number of blocks per day) and a transaction size of 250 bytes.

So, for example, a transaction that has 2 inputs, one of 5 btc with 10 confirmations, and one of 2 btc with 3 confirmations, and has a size of 500bytes, will have a priority of

(500000000 * 10 + 200000000 * 3) / 500 = 11,200,000

so say the 5500sat and it is 2 days old and needs 500bytes to transmit..

(5500*288 ) / 500 = 3168

then just increase the blue part until the end result gets to 57,600,000

EG
5500 * 5237000 / 500=57607000
5237000 / 144 confirmations per day = 36368 days
(answer=100 years hense why its a spam attempt. as its not a transaction of value)

your better off waiting for bitcoins fiat value to spike to force the transaction fee to drop to then be profitable to move funds

yes its a private keys,and i try to add it to my blockchain wallet,actually my unused wallet,and i import it directly,and maybe users already know that he doing wrong,and that address has been empty,its remain me,i also have same experience when i'm dont know that private keys should not and never shared

[diodio5]

lol why do you share the private key, it is clear the private key. at least you remove some letters digits dude

be careful guys

Reading the entire thread might help.

Wow , is it possible til now to send a transaction with zero fees ! why would miners waste their time and power to confirm such a transaction ? and the funny part is It takes only  3 hours to get confirmed which a transaction with fees can take that time
I thought that the days of free transactions have ended and it was in the first years only

It has a high priority. By default miners still have 50KByte reserved for transactions without fee, ordered by priority. The large input has 20,743 confirmations with ~1.7BTC value so 1.7*20743/144 =~244 bitcoin days.

According to blocktrail[1] the TX in total had a priority of 9,668,496,460.

Top 20 in terms of priority of the ~9k TX waiting for a confirmation on my node:

Code:

  2,341,582,826.15384626
  2,678,532,626.43181849
  2,711,615,384.61538458
  3,583,972,950.30769253
  3,838,105,476.83333349
  3,887,977,272.72727251
  4,339,554,642.87179470
  4,555,239,070.75471687
  5,127,570,661.25000000
  5,890,474,793.37179470
  6,702,525,091.12820530
  7,597,765,363.12849140
 11,361,882,744.00000000
 24,793,105,508.09659958
 25,484,776,241.69230652
 41,091,759,995.17335510
 52,068,086,846.15384674
 54,065,099,355.51281738
320,256,652,601.80767822
476,436,860,679.24530029

So the TX in question would have been on spot 9.

O what was the point of that, i dont get it.  You could have tested your vanity address yourself with out posting the privkey on btalk,  when you look back in 20 years and think how much them Satoshi's are now, you might regret doing that.....lol

It is the same as saying you should collect from faucets all day because one day the 500 Satoshi is going to be worth something. Or regret tipping someone 10k Satoshi.

There are plenty of opportunities to rebuy those satoshis for hardly anything, so regretting in the future is nonsense.

[Chris!]

Looks like someone got it
