The richest users on the bitcoin forum

[unemployed]

Edit (03.07.2011) - fixed sorting:
I scraped all bitcoin addresses from signatures on this forum. Here is the list of 20 users with the largest Received BTC.

The full sorted list of 810 users with nonzero Received BTC.

All 810 users have received in total 135227.70032101 BTC, that means over $2,000,000 in today's bitcoin value moved through their public addresses.
Top 20% of users (first 162 users on the list) received 133313.68094269 BTC, that is 98.5% of total.
Top 4% of users (first 32 users) received 121680.67078403 BTC, that is 90% of total.
Looks like the richest users in the Bitcoin world are more rich than in a typical Pareto distribution of wealth, where 20% of richest people have 80% of wealth, and 4% of richest people have 64% of wealth.

Man, no doubt you are unemployed!  

[Serge]

Who cares?

[BCwinning]

Who cares?

scary hackers

[FlipPro]

This guy takes his role of troll very seriously here.  

[NO_SLAVE]

hey great, you just did the homework for someone who may now target them individually.

now why would you do that?  

[SgtSpike]

You forgot mine (firstbits).

[foggyb]

Yeah save the hackers some trouble, thanks.

Now the script kiddies will be after them too.

What do you want, a medal?

Awesome.  I think people need checks like this every so often to make sure they know how anonymous their shit is.

I mean, we all know it, but sometimes a reminder like this one, which initially hurts no one, is what we need.

Also, thanks for the link back, I'm sure it is in there for no good reason, but whatever lol

Why ?

[airdata]

I'm surprised that Slush and Thyco (sp?) are not listed there.  Unless it's just because they don't have an address pandering for donations

[hugolp]

unemployed whats the point of this?

I honestly didn't notice at first.  I'm a tard.  When you use his extension (which I am not, I just know how it functions), all the numbers in the thread become clickable.

Proof of concept I guess.  I know he has a good tool there, but I think saying this thread is a sad use for it is an understatement.

[BkkCoins]

He just wants to show it can be done.

[peach]

Really? I thought dozens of people on these forums had 1000s of BTC...Someone please clarify.

And we don't want to, but thanks for putting these peoples accounts at risk. WTF is wrong with people?

[Lynzoi]

Haha, awesome, I'm part of the social elite. Start imitating my lifestyle.

I have moved a lot of money around, but I don't think I am really one of the richest on the forum. All this shows is how much money has been moved to and from that particular address. I have a lot of money in Bitcoins though.

I don't think there is a huge risk here. I suppose somebody could attack my forum password, but there is no guarantee that is is the same as my other passwords. There's no guarantee that I store Bitcoins on my harddrive also.

They probably do, and they are probably smart enough to have multiple wallets.

And we don't want to, but thanks for putting these peoples accounts at risk. WTF is wrong with people?

If their account was in risk after this thread, I assure you those peoples accounts were at risk before.

No matter what though, still a shit thing to do.

A better title might be, "The most tip-worthy users on the bitcoin forum". And even that would be inaccurate, because it assumes that everyone who puts an address in their signature has not re-used the address for other transactions. Kinda interesting to see which forum users are having the most success with their tip jars, though!
