It seems the address which sent this Monster transaction has been regularly sending coins to RipDice
https://blockchain.info/address/13Df4x5nQo7boLWHxQCbJzobN5gUNT65Hh

So may be it's a cold storage (or big hot wallet) of RipDice
It has bee certified as a scam now though .

Well if they been certified as a scam then that is one heck of a lot of coin to get away with and some serious coin made their for the people behind the scam ie the admins and people working along side them.

I seriously doubt RipDice (looks like a mediocre scam attempt) had 39 thousand btc, I bet even primedice doesn't have this much btc. They were using a free script and were "doubling deposits", maybe ripdice is someone much bigger...

When I send small amounts of BTC I double check the addresses and even then my nerves are on edge. Can't imagine what it must have been like clicking the confirmation to send that amount!

Yes, I check the address and make sure it is EXACT. Adding a space or missing a letter at the end would make your btc dissapear. When providing addresses to pay me, I give them the blockchain link so they don't copy it wrong, and they can see the address is in use and soemone is behind it.

Public keys are checksummed so missing a letter or adding a space would not cause you to lose your coins unless you were incredibly unlucky.

Yes thats true. Another thing to watch is manually checking over both addresses. Once I blindly copied a store address, and I hit shift C instead of ctrl C, and didn't copy it, and then I accidentaly sent 0.5 btc to luckyb.it instead of the seller, which would be generally bad but I won 10% so I aint even mad. I press ctrl C about 5 times (im paranoid) and then manually check the first 5 and last 5 characters. I urge everyone to do the character checking

what is the purpose of sending huge amounts of coins without fee.
a lot of the monster size transactions are sent without fee. is there a special reason for that?

Dick swinging maybe? Perhaps it sends a thrill through a miner to process such a huge transaction. Or perhaps it's to prove an obscure point.

What point, though? The fee is almost non-existent as it is. There's really not much of a difference between going from a $0.00x fee to no fee.

With that said, there's really no REASON to pay a fee if it's not required. But I don't think it's any sort of "statement" or anything. It would mean more if we were closer to the extremely small block rewards.

with 25btc blocks the miners fee is too small to get you anything decent.
having that said, a fee of just a few $ cents can make your transaction confirm so much faster.
i don't think saving $0,0X is worth waiting hours and hours. especially for large transactions.

Yea, I usually use 0.0001 btc as a default fee if the tx is not time restraining, but if im placing or a bet or entering something I will do about 0.0002 or 0.0003 to stay above the rest, or if the tx is very large I do a larger fee as well. Using 0 fee is stupid, is the chance of not confirming, or waiting 24 hours to confirm really wroth saving a couple cents???

I don't know much about it but RipDice is the name shown on their transaction ,i don't think they would have been able to get away with such large amount .
Definitely they hadn't cheated at that time maybe?

Doubling Deposit ? What does that term even mean ?
Double Deposit it's not that easy and wouldn't be accepted by Main blockchain or miners
