Guys, you`re shooting your foot, STOP that, STOP harming the network!
how exactly?.. your coins arent going to run anywhere just sit it out

coins are disappearing slowly but surely.

jep.. i'm taking them .. getting rich over this! better sell  your coins on exchanges as fast as you can

let the fud begin.

Whatever. And no you haven’t been in bitcoin since 2010. Plus if you really feel the way you do. Then sell. Have conviction. If not keep pounding sand.

all pools should make a script to take the addresses from this thread and burn the coins...
if they state in public maybe others are able to stop their greed and we can turn back to normal.

this remembers me of the dark ages where rich people threw cents to the poor; watching them fight over them... its disgusting!

Mempool is increasing about 100kb every 4-12 seconds it seems. Good job you guys. Well played.
People really need to stop doing this. Obviously the plan from Coinwallet.eu is working out. It looks like they had a backup plan if problems (e.g. legal pressures) came up. I doubt that someone figured out something devious such as this so quickly.
People really need to stop it. Most of the recent private keys contained around $4 each and it is not worth anyone's time. You are suffocating the network! It is only becoming worse.



Not really if you look at normal transactions like this one https://blockchain.info/tx/0cb1562aa7f6d599a81ced96c181194028ce14b7f8d55d0fdeccb872813f43ea  are getting thru fine that particular one took 3 min to confirm.  Its only the ones that pertain to this "giveaway" that are filling up the mempool and creating the backlog.

This transaction looks like maybe someone trying to get some of the giveaway coins.

Small dust transactions will take a LONG time to confirm in this environment but normal transactions will confirm as normal.

I've successfully loaded 1.05 Bitcoins to my trashed blockchain account  Grin



I'll sell the whole account for 0.1 BTC Tongue
ok gimme me 0.1 BTC and i will eh get that account from you

back to bussiness: i have a question with all this spam/stress test/ddos...hundred/thousands of unconfirmed and delayed transactions, high fees...etc,  why the btc price is relatively stable {yet}?

The price went down but recovered briefly.

IMO it's because people see that the claimed 30 day backlog isn't going to happen with just the giveaway.

It seems to me like months of planning went into this "stress test" and quite some brilliant economic and social engineering.

That said, I would assume there's yet another phase to this test.  A plan C?

They may not have generated a 30 day backlog, but they have shown that for a few thousand dollars you can really wreak havoc on the bitcoin network. Hell of an attack vector!

Fuck you CoinWallet.eu


You didn't cancelled your shitty Stress Test. You just use people greediness so they make it by their own so you can't get in charge for this. But you still do it


You are what is worst in the community.

Bitcoiners stress testing their greed  Cheesy

How Ripple Rips you: "The founders of Ripple Labs created 100 billion XRP at Ripple's inception. No more can be created according to the rules of the Ripple protocol. Of the 100 billion created, 20 billion XRP were retained by the creators, seeders, venture capital companies and other founders. The remaining 80 billion were given to Ripple Labs. Ripple Labs intends to distribute and sell 55 of that 80 billion XRP to users and strategic partners. Ripple Labs also had a giveaway of under 200 million XRP (0.002% of all XRP) via World Community Grid that was later discontinued.[29] Ripple Labs will retain the remaining 25 billion"

All the more reason a fee market needs to develop and why proposals that harm the fee market are a bad idea.

Ya its funny all the people screaming the sky is falling.  News flash if you are transferring more then 0.001 BTC and your transaction isn't made of a hundred 0.00001 BTC inputs then you will never even notice this "stress test".  Just go have a look on blockchain.info all normal transactions are processing fine.

I bet the price of BTC ends up rallying off this due to how little it will actually effect the network.

No priv keys dropped for some hours now. The total number of unconfirmed transactions is still going up and down though. BTCChina and F2Pool aren't doing much to help clearing the backlog by mining non full blocks.

It seems 1mb blocks have too low fees currently, at ~0.1 to 0.3btc as an incentive for some miners to even bother with all the spam and dust.

And don't import the private keys into electrum.  The servers are run by volunteers.  You don't want to spam their servers by asking them for gigabytes of transaction data.  At least send them a bitcoin to their donation address for the stress that you put on their server.

Groan. Now you tell us. :-p

Thanks, though, I appreciate the info. Is there a way to "undo" importing into an electrum wallet once it has begun?

Not sure if there is a way.  Probably the easiest way is to delete the wallet (back it up first!) and then restore the wallet from the seed.  This should restore all but the imported private keys.  You may lose some settings or labels, though. Editing the wallet by hand (it is a text file) may also work, but it is dangerous...

Thanks, after I asked it occurred to me that I could dig up my wallet backup. I'll give that a try first.

This worked! Back to square one after only 5-6 hours syncing. :-) 

I'll sit the rest of this mess out. I think Coinwallet will still face charges, because they can't credibly claim they have no responsibility for what is happening. It's like dumping bushel baskets of coins out on a busy road and trying to claim that the resulting carnage and mayhem is not their fault, just the fault of all the pedestrians and drivers involved.

"The number of backlogged transactions is currently above 90,000 and climbing, and the size of the “memory pool,” the database that stores them, is shooting past 150MB. It usually sits below 10. On the Bitcointalk forum, where much of today’s action is going down, users are reporting that their Bitcoin clients are crashing when they try to collect the coins."
