1CfsAiYaVfk12dnZpZALcRSP9jjWDk26FX - Stop making transactions!

[eleuthria]

Whoever owns 1CfsAiYaVfk12dnZpZALcRSP9jjWDk26FX - Your software is terribly broken and paying out massive transaction fees.  Over 100 BTC in the last 24 hours as best I can estimate, and a lot of it is going to pools that pay transaction fees to miners meaning there isn't an option to just ask for the money to be sent back.

I stumbled on it when someone in #btcguild told me the pool just hit a 106 BTC block.  The pool is nearly all PPLNS which is immediately credited for blocks including txfees so it's not something I can just refund like the pool has done in the past (used to be 50% or less of the pool on PPLNS, now it's closer to 5%).

Tracing the transactions back through the blockchain, it REALLY looks like a mixing service (A very broken mixing service).

Eventually the operator of the mixing service is going to discover that they don't have enough funds to send to all their clients (I suppose a Ponzi/Pyramid like effect might keep it going for a while).  When that happens, there are going to be some VERY unhappy people who have lost the funds that they've sent to this mixing service.

If I had more time on my hands, it would be an interesting project to try and identify all the addresses owned/controlled by the service, and see what funds are coming in or going out.

I was thinking exactly the same, also wishing I were less busy though at US$30K per day in losses, it could make sense to clear the day for this.

I'm curious if this is related to an earlier case, when a transaction was also accompanied by a large sum of fees. Fortunately that block was mined by ASICMINER and the fees were returned to the original issuer.

Until I saw that the block was mined by a pool that pays out transaction fees I thought this would be somebody trying to hide transactions from network analysis.

You can mine a block containing transactions you haven't broadcast. So you can keep your own transaction fees, effectively transferring arbitrary sums to addresses where no actual transactions exist between sender and recipient.

There are plenty of miners with sufficient hashing power to solo mine and get a block every now and then.

blockchain.info seems to ignore transaction fees in its taint analysis. Are there any network analysis tools that treat mining fees as transactions?

Unfortunately trying to do that would basically add taint to the vast majority of the network.  A block generation transaction is a single output of the subsidy+tx fees with no input.  So you couldn't trace it back through inputs, you'd have to basically consider every single transaction from the block an input if it had a fee, which would be extremely messy.  Additionally, you couldn't tell the difference between the subsidy and the txfee, so anything that was ever sent through that block's coin generation is now tainted.
