This is a little weird, and I was hoping for some advice.

I was going through a webserver's referrer logs today and this site came up:

http://pastehtml.com/view/ayrpygp5m.html

It's a list of what appears to be forum userIDs, bitcoin hashes, and websites where available. I saved a copy in case it goes away, but I am curious to know why this is there or of what interest this information would be to somebody.

Thanks,

/i.

P.S. The IP that made the request with the pastehtml referrer was 188.29.94.119, which seems to be London, UK.
Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Maybe this would be a better question for Meta. I'm happy with moving it if that's the consensus.

There's another similar list at http://pastehtml.com/view/az6tr2xga.html  (found it by googling some of the addresses; know nothing else about it.)

That was someone taking publicly available Bitcoin addresses and totaling up the Bitcoins for that address from the block chain trying to see who has the most Bitcoins.

That's why I have 1 of my addresses designated for "Donations" and it's the only one I publicly post.
