What do you think of this address 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF?

[gmaxwell]

In spite of the mistaken claims given earlier in this thread, it is well established that the address contains funds taken from MTGox.  This has been well known to the Bitcoin community for most of a decade, but sadly the post quality here has become so poor that you can't even count on people to respond with well known facts.

A quick google would have quickly answered your questions: https://blog.wizsec.jp/2020/06/mtgox-march-2011-theft.html

As far as the ongoing tiny payments, dust payments to high value addresses is a common form of spam on Bitcoin.  If you look at the payers you'll see that many of them also pay dust to many other high value addresses.

hi there! suppose someone got access to the private key of the 1Feex address. What do you think would be the correct course of action. Send it back to someone from Mt. Gox and keep, let's say, a modest 30% bounty or just throw away the key? ... 🤷

I'd suggest to spend it all as mining fee and then wait for the authorities to compensate you after figuring out whether or not you had anything to do with the theft, otherwise you can never actually spend anything from that address, but if you want to throw away billions just like that, be my guest.
I guess it would be a good idea for the hackers to come clean, but man my man, %30 is too much, if you are the hacker, take %10 and make a deal. just calculate 8000 BTC with current price, you'll have more than enough for next 10 generations.

So there is 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF address that has 79,957.2607018 BTC in it and there is no single output from this address. It seems the owner of this address do not spent a single BTC however, it is still accumulating.

This is definitely an account set up to used for accumulating bitcoin. I checked through the address on blockchair and the owner is definitely using a DCA method to accumulate. The owner does at least a little top every week with as little as 0.00001btc. This has been going on for the past 12 years now.

Personally this seems like a good way of accumulating bitcoin but the problem I have will be having lots of these funds on a single wallet. On security and privacy perspective I don’t feel it’s ok.

Doing DCA to accumulate BTC by this person is a very great one. If all BTC lover can do this, all BTC  will hold BTC no matter how small it is.

There is no limit to how much or number of bitcoin that an address or wallet can hold. Basically even the entire 21 million bitcoins can be on a single wallet. This is actually one of the biggest advantages of bitcoin wallet over even fiat banks. Just that the risk of losing of everything on one wallet is adviced

I think holding that huge amount of BTC in a single wallet is risky. God forbid, if such wallet is hacked, that means the person has forfeited almost all his/her life savings.

Pst, do you realize that's a %50 premined scam sig you are wearing while garbage posting right? Lol please take a look at the posts on the same page you are posting. OMG. Where is Dan Pedro something, his/her methods are useful on this board.🤣

Does anybody follow this address on electrum

Does anybody follow this address on electrum

I just created a watch-only Electrum wallet to verify that there are no outgoing transactions spending outputs from 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF. You know the drill: don't trust, verify! This takes less than a minute (I didn't count).

Why do you ask? Why should anybody follow the fate of this address, except for the initial funds being apparently stolen from Mt.Gox?

[AVE5]

I don't think if anyone can give you a rightful detail about what's going on in that wallet.
Since it's not tkureiand not mine maywr can just move on and let it go.
If I can remember there has also be existed topic pertaining this Very wallet address.
Although I dear what would be the intention of the owner. I think it maybe some sorts of community wallet account with a solid agreement to hold and accumulates as much without tempering it untill a period of time to execute a great and a massive goal.
Hopefully the testimonies for the achievement would be credited with honour to bitcoin given such privilege.

Hello everyone! What do you think about the legendary 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF address?
For those who don't know the story, 79k bitcoins were sent to this address 11 years ago, in 2011, and they were never moved, not a single dollar.
It is said that they were stolen from Mt Gox,

The first ‎79,956 BTC where deposited into the address on the 1st March 2011. Mt. Gox major hack came in around June 2011 according to Wikipedia

So the Mt Gox story is ruled out.

Maybe the owner might have lost access to the wallet or is no more alive. Those coins cost less than a dollar when it was accumulated. The wonder of hodling

It's really a wonder that Bitcoin is still accumulating.
If the owner of the wallet really lost his access, is there any way to recover it?

[Cricktor]

The address belongs to me.

Prove it by signing a bitcoin message with the private key of address 1Feex...W9sb6uF or STFU! It's otherwise just tiresome and boring to read the crap of wannabee pretenders.

i would appreciate some recognition as the addresses owner out of pure respect.  

Lol, respect has to be earned. Prove, you're the owner, your words so far mean nothing.

I have 21 years experience with microsoft and the internet ...

Beat this: it's more than 45 years ago that I already programmed in Assembler, Pascal, Modula and later C.  

It's really a wonder that Bitcoin is still accumulating.

The initial owner doesn't accumulate, it's morons throwing dust and bitcoin spam at this address bloating the UTXO set.

If the owner of the wallet really lost his access, is there any way to recover it?

Mathematically not impossible, practically due to bounds of available energy and time on this planet: impossible.

The conclusion is that the owner of this wallet doesn't want you to know anything. Why are you asking such question on this child board. A wallet is something personal even we have the details on the Blockchain. We should not try to invade into its details unless we are certain out that the wallet is of a scammer. Creating such shit topic on this board doesn't make any thing relevant for newbies. Stop focusing on any wallet and start working on having such a wallet.

Exactly the point I was running in my Head as regards to the ops, why should you be so interested in a wallet that have nothing directly with you because having such mentality to know who owns or what kind of transactions that goes on in the wallet, you are already diving into your confusion this is because Bitcoin is a highly privacy oriented technology a d it holders can remain unknown.


We have so many wallets of such and we can tell it is the owners that are in control of the wallet or some other random individual.

So there is 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF address that has 79,957.2607018 BTC in it and there is no single output from this address. It seems the owner of this address do not spent a single BTC however, it is still accumulating.

I don't know what conclusion one can make about this address. Is this a person, a company or something else? How come that much money can be accumulated in one address and never been spent? Or there is something I don't understand?

Regardless of who owns the address, your question is self explanatory, I think the owners be it an institution or individuals don't have any  plans to sell anytime soon but are seriously on the habit of accumulating more, and if the figures you mentioned can be accumulated in a wallet without any issues, I means that more than that can be in one wallet, so DYOR to find out how much Bitcoins a single wallet could contain.

 Anyways that should serve as an inspiration to you towards accumulating Bitcoin to your portfolio, the owner or owners of that particular wallet believe so much on Bitcoin and it's potential to be accumulating more instead of selling out, so as a Bitcoin enthusiast you could emulate them and normalise saving in Bitcoin over time.
