My account showed the same thing. So far it's happened 3 days in a row and someone tried to hack my gmail account. My Coinbase account was locked due to too many unsuccessful log in attempts. Coinbase contacted me immediately. Changed all my passwords of course.

Thankfully I have no online wallets.

Here is the attempted hack info

Damn! How many threads do we have to see about this? These boards are getting monotonous to get through because you noobs refuse to use the search feature.

Well, the forum's search feature blows and sucks at the same time. I resorted to downloading all of my own posts with a script periodically. At least I can find things that I wrote or quoted. Sometimes.

I just found all of those threads using the search feature.

You have been granted 2 gold stars and an attaboy!

Congrats!

I can confirm the same thing happening to me. The originating address is 1Bhv6XjXBvraivcATHwwLMscZ5xJm9FsPn and the transaction number is https://blockchain.info/tx/84d24e09adb61f6c95ca57338ac8bc548d61b7efa56f593aa581c633112cd886 for 0.00000001 BTC.

Anyone else able to figure what is going on here?

What possible purpose is there for almost 500 transactions sending that amount to ~50 times per txn?

It might be the NSA using some new form of hacking to locate Bitcoin addresses in a way we haven't thought of yet.

Whatever you do, don't tell them about the block chain. They will locate a lot of Bitcoin addresses in that thing!

Does receiving a satoshi to your address trigger any p2p response from the client?

It doesn't confirm because there is no transaction fee paid.

And do you really need to question why someone on the Internet would do something to annoy a lot of other people on the Internet, when doing so is cost-free and fairly simple?

It's not an attack, it's a free fraction of a penny that will probably never be confirmed.

It can't hurt you, relax. Cool

I'm confident in Coinbase and the future of bitcoins. I'm just trying to stir the bitcoin news pot Grin

. Nonetheless, it could still be an attempted attack. why else send so many tiny amounts of bitcoins?

It's not directed at Coinbase.

The 0.00000001 transactions are being sent to every address on the blockchain.

I don't think any of them will confirm.

Since a new days ago, my Coinbase account has been receiving a Sotoshi(0.00000001 btc) from a unknown entity. There are many other Coinbase users experiencing the same thing. The transaction stays as "pending" and then disappears. At first the speculation was that the sotoshi's were sent for advertising purposes but the fact that the sotoshi transaction does not go through leads me to believe that these are malicious, false transactions that are eventually sorted out by Coinbase; an attack on Coinbase by trying to flood their transaction capacity. any thoughts?
