I still don't get how this is like advertising. You only get to see the address from which they are sending you the money nothing else.

I received that 1 Satoshi transaction in the deposit address from some gambling site, and got emailed about the deposit of 10^-8 BTC.


They managed to spam my email via blockchain spam.

Such annoyingness

There was a tag "BitSmart" on that address on blockchain.info, together with a link to their website. Not sure what happened but the tag is now gone.

On the positive side, at least it costs the spammers something to spam. Email spam has much lower costs.

But then the cost is clearly not high enough to stop the site owner from advertising his site with transaction spams.

Yes, for sure. We need to come up with other ways to increase their costs and lower their effectiveness.

Well since the "ad" works only on blockchain.info, it would be great if we have more alternative sites providing block explorer and wallet service. We have a few other block explorers but none of them offers a hosted wallet service.

Why do you want to stop him? He's just given out free money! xD
And most people will probably ignore the transactions anyway lol.

That 0.00000001 btc or 1 satoshi is a spam advertising online services in the blockchain. Don't be bothered though. Think of it as someone is trying to catch your attention using a dust. ^_^

Seems like an annoying form of advertising to me, spamming their way in the blockchain hoping that someone will notice their advertisement. >.<

If we stop getting worried with those dusts, stop checking the sender of those transactions on blockchain.info, and stop making this kind of threads after receiving a dust, I am sure we will have less and less of spam. Smiley
