I got a few of them over the olympics period. They do no harm. Just wait a couple of days and they will disappear.

I also got them the past few months, don't worry, they will disappear, just a matter of time.

Yes, it's.

They never stayed at my wallet near 3 months at all.

IIRC there was a very specific attack where this kind of transactions would help. I dont remember the details though and its most likely just spam or ads you can see on blockchain.info. Did you check the inputs there? Do they have a text with them?

These transactions are just spam and may be safely ignored.

Please refrain from posting on topics you know nothing about. Unconfirmed transactions will not "disappear".

Please refrain from making absolute assumptions on topics you think you know everything about. Unconfirmed transactions do disappear after a few days, whether they are still visible on the client depends on which one you use.

I am sure you understand that, you were too busy making smart comments and forgot to mention it in detail.

Depends. If the senders client keeps broadcasting them they will keep showing up in your wallet. But on other hand if the sender keeps them broadcasted they will evtually be confirmed and you get to spend the dust

Marketing? Jokes? Dont know, did you check if there is a comment with the TX on blockchain.info?

Usually this happens with addresses that have plenty coins.

e.g. to bitstamps cold wallet:

or to the coins currently held by the FBI / USMS

First, check your address on the blockexplorers such as blockchain.info or blockr.io and see if the satoshi spam have disappeared first. When they have, check your client whether the unconfirmed transactions have disappeared. If they are still visible on your client, you might have to edit your wallet.dat or restore from seed depending which client you use. Tell us which client you are using and we will direct you to a method to remove unconfirmed transactions from your wallet.
