I just received 0.00000001 BTC yesterday out of the blue. Looking at the transaction ID, whoever or whatever it was sent the same amount to a bunch of other addresses. Any idea what is going on?

Not likely. From the transaction you can see that he sent 0.00000001 to 750 different addresses. Maybe trying to spam the block/mempool? I'm not sure if that's how this works. Edit: This is the address doing that "1SochiWwFFySPjQoi2biVftXn8NRPCSQC". And that's not the first time he does that. Check the address on any explorer and see for yourself the amount of transactions with +700 outputs. I also found quotations to this same addresses from 2014 where this person was doing the same thing Thread from 2014:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=459845.0;all

A fee of 0.39 sat/B haha. I've seen transactions like this before where they are advertising a service or website or something but I don't seem them doing that here ( at least not very visibly ).

Very weird. I have like more than 8 total wallets and I haven't had such a transaction. Doesn't look like an accidental send, doesn't look like his/her intention was to give you bitcoin (or a few satoshis) either. Someone trying to spam the blockchain maybe? ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

Maybe trying to spam the block/mempool?
Looks like spam to me. The user is sending to many different addresses to increase the size of the transaction. The transaction that the user mentioned is >25,000 bytes in size. Haha that is a low ammount , someone maybe wrong the address and thats is , you should be happy for that ammount of btc haha :d
It's fucking annoying to receive that much. The OP will have to accept an increase to the fees he has to pay when he sends a transaction with that input. Either that or he factors that tiny amount out of his transactions. I also found quotations to this same addresses from 2014 where this person was doind the same thing Thread from 2014:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=459845.0;all
So I suppose we've found one of the several addresses being used to spam the network. I've seen two of them before, but they had a slightly different pattern.

It seems to be an intentional move to give pressure on already cluttered bitcoin block chain from the persons who doesn't want bitcoin to be a success.

I remember there were also some rumors before that people would do this to taint addresses for whatever reasons. However; I wouldn't worry! That satoshi might be worth something in the future. Cheers! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

It doesn't matter the amount he/she sent but I guess its the effect to the network of sending those micro payments to more than 700 inputs. It seems the owner of this address trying to spam the network again and obviously it will cause to slowdown the network and it's not the first time he/she sent this micro transaction because most of the transaction he/she made was all the same, too many inputs.

Blockchain spam, probably there is some message attached to the transaction.
Or maybe he only wants to troll and lock some people's addresses, who knows

It is very likely that address is spamming. As you can see by clicking into their transactions, they are sending many 1 satoshi transactions to random wallets. When this happens it clogs the network. Likely the campaign by some in the BTC industry to try to fill mempool again, they want big blocks.
It also sucks for you because if you withdraw that 1 satoshi in another transaction your fee will be slightly higher because it is an extra input into your withdrawal.

Such a small amount I first thought it might be a faucet you have used and since forgotten about but if it has gone to multiple addresses must be some kind of spam, wouldn't worry about it really.

lol it's only 0.0000001btc, maybe that person just testing his wallet and sent the bitcoin randomly. I agree with this. Most likely, this guy just learned about Bitcoin and is simply testing his wallet/transactions to figure out how it works. With that said, it is still an odd and strange occurrence. Especially considering transaction fees... wouldn't this guy be paying quite a bit in fees if he is randomly sending out 1 Satoshi to lots of people?

I believe you should probably read the whole thread first before expressing your opinion ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) A few members - including myself - already found out what is this guy probably doing. Not likely. From the transaction you can see that he sent 0.00000001 to 750 different addresses. Maybe trying to spam the block/mempool? I'm not sure if that's how this works.

I also found quotations to this same addresses from 2014 where this person was doing the same thing Thread from 2014:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=459845.0;all
P.s: No reasons to continue replying to this thread with the same info over and over again. OP should lock the thread.
