I suspect the reason they are releasing the keys is to give themselves plausible deniability. This way they can still go ahead with the attack and just claim it was greedy bitcoiners scrambling over the coins.

Possibly but I think instead they are just using greedy Bitcoiners to execute the attack for them. These private keys had Bitcoins that when spent cause very spammy transactions that can clog up the network. It's obvious their intention is to attack the network so what they are doing is still probably illegal.

Why don't you spread the release of the keys out over a few weeks instead?

Why dont you tell your buddies at coinwallet to use those coinz for funding the launch of your stupid XT altcoin?
Maybe rent coupla servers to boost your fading xt nodes too?

Still angry after losing your money to the failed AM venture?

So let me make sure I understand this. They have cancelled a stress test and instead they are offering free bitcoins to everyone! They are counting on human greed (and I guess this works well so far) and that people will rush to claim this free BTC. Since many people are attempting to claim via same private keys, the, are actually clogging the network and raising the fees.

Did I get this wrong? Is this working for them? I guess that stress test is not then cancelled after all.

This is exactly what is happening. But I guess only those experts who understand how transaction fee and transaction size work are able to claim those coins. I have not been successful in getting even a Satoshi at all! Cry

Reputation first.

It's incredibile what was happened some minutes ago ! I've tried to export some bitcoin to one of my address (in the interested address there was something like 0.43 BTC) but I wasn't able to do this because there were many error about my send. (Error getting outputs, etc.)

Please read my post. This is all valid, the only problem is that it is hard to actually use it. The address that had around 0.53 BTC had over 50k inputs. Importing that takes a while and sending BTC is also problematic.
Unless you're the only one using the private key at the time and you have a bot/script then it is almost impossible. I've tried sending 0.002 using coin control by manually selecting 200 inputs. This worked until the other person who was using a bot or script caused a 'conflicted' status on the transaction and thus it was invalidated.

Some private keys have more than others, and I suspect that some addresses have already been emptied. Without proper assistance most users will not be able to acquire the coins. The optimal fee is rising drastically because of this; currently: 0.0014930 9BTC per KB.

Interesting, so it's a crowd sourced stress test Shocked

Well this is an interesting turn of events. My feeling is it was planned like this all along though. Expecting fees to go crazy.

post the public address of the key or it didnt happen.

I don't usually care about random people that do not believe me, but here you are:

There is at least 1 more person that has imported this address and is trying to take the coins. I've figured out a way that works, but without a bot or something this will be painful.

Everything can't be sent out because the TX would be 7949454 bytes big (this results in a error in Core for me).

Dont use bitcoinqt. Use bitcoind, write a script ( i used php) that cycles through the outputs (via rpc) to create inputs for rawtransaction and sendtransaction them to the rpc port. You can chain a load of them that way in rapid succession.

you are still bottlenecked by waiting for the keys....

hmmm why cant you import your private key into another wallet then send it from there?

I think that you do not understand how this works. Once a private key is announced publicly (like in this case), anyone can import it. Once two users import the same private key and start sending transactions, this is what happens. They can both send Bitcoins from the address simultaneously. From what I can see whoever else imported the same address, they're using a bot or script to extract the money.

Without a bot or script I can't extract myself anything because it usually ends up as conflicted.

Update: I have never used bitcoind, nor can I write a script myself.

What a clever brilliant move. I really didn't see this coming. Curious if it's gonna be enough to properly stress test Bitcoin.

Actually after testing it myself last night I do not agree. Basically not everyone is going to have the hardware to do this. Also an address with a huge amount of inputs (over 53k transactions) can't be easily cleaned. It is not like once could send the whole balance at once (you will get some errors). This actually isn't as easy as it seems.

Quote from: chaoman on September 10, 2015, 01:27:26 AM

post one that had an amount inside it.

I imported one with 0.53BTC and my wallet.dat is around 80MB big.
