I had this happen, but it was from a pay-to-click site's address tagged in blockchain.info.  (I never went to that site.)  So maybe someone is sending out satoshis randomly.

Hey there,
for some reason a few hours ago I randomly got sent 0.000004 BTC, I checked the blockchain and this was sent to hundreds of addresses with a total of 0.22BTC, no idea why. However it's been standing unconfirmed in my wallet for hours now, with other transaction confirmign just fine. How does this come?

Yes, I got this too.

I don't think they paid a fee, therefore it will take forever. I'm trying to find out who owns this address and why they have sent this.


Ah, alright. I tried figuring it out too, but I didn't find anything. I wasn't surprised as for the past three weeks every day/ few days someone has been sending me a few satoshis.
I seriously wonder why this is done though, maybe to slow down confirmations or something? I don't know much about this.

Maybe so, I was wondering for a few minutes if I had sold anything months ago and forgot about it. But, then I went through everything and I didn't. I then looked for more information on the address, and I realised that it sent more Bitcoins like this to others.
Maybe, somebody just thought "Hey, I'll be generous today and give these guys a Bitcoins". I guess we can call our self lucky?
It's not much, but it's still something.

I suppose, eitherway it's nice. I still do wonder who is sending me a few satoshis every now and then.
