The question I now have is who owns https://blockchain.info/address/1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV and, moreover, how is it connected to InstaWallet?
I do. I had intended to withdraw my coins from Instawallet for a long time, before finally doing in smaller chunks in the week preceding the "hack". In hindsight, it appears I was quite lucky.

I am in no way affiliated with Instawallet or its operators. Great detective work, though!

Code:
In response to Phinnaeus Gage's post on the bitcointalk.org forums (dated April 05, 2014), I, terrytibbs, hereby prove that I am the owner of 1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
Don't sure if it's relevant to my investigation of InstaWallet, but terrytibbs last posted on January 12, 2013, 03:51:16 PM, and still stops by to lurk.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
I am going on hiatus.

theymos has been given the private key corresponding to Bitcoin address 1terryG9vPoB4ktv9w5eGgCKqCfJtoqF5. I have funded the address with 47 BTC — more than enough to settle any outstanding cases.

He has my full permission to use the funds in issuing refunds to any customers who have decided not to accept the refund when offered one, or only accepted a partial refund (they are entitled to the remainder). I am sending a list these users along with the respective amounts to theymos together with the private key. Any other use is strictly forbidden.

I may claim the funds left in the future.

thanks for the lols
terry

Apologies for bumping this old thread/post, but I stumbled upon the 1terryG... address by accident while conducting an investigation into InstaWallet, due to the fact they haven't returned my 1,132 BTC, going as far as stating that I don't even have a claim, but I digress on that issue.

I found a wallet of interest, making a note of it via the following post:

Ongoing list of InstaWallet wallets of interest. (even named the title of this post such for easy recovery down the road)

https://blockchain.info/address/1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV

The tx in question is https://blockchain.info/tx/c67a151ce7e1437be612f0e452e1b319b0d2d3d9e2cef165dbc79e3a8dd41e9d

https://blockchain.info/address/1terryG9vPoB4ktv9w5eGgCKqCfJtoqF5 only had two transactions.

2012-06-19 20:14:06
2013-03-29 16:37:23 (2 days prior to the InstaWallet supposed "hack")

After adding bitcoins to bring the amount to an even 50 BTC, the wallet was moved to https://blockchain.info/address/1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV, of which was the last deposit into this wallet, for a grand total of 600 BTC that not one satoshi has ever been spent.

The 1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV wallet was created on 2013-03-27 23:20:37, and received two transactions from InstaWallet's Hot Wallet, including the last odd amount, of which is odd, in and of itself.



The question I now have is who owns https://blockchain.info/address/1uKVtMUK7E2CkVynYa7ytnTu6wGqFTxUV and, moreover, how is it connected to InstaWallet?

Seems like ET language to me, I'd admit  Grin

No, Scandanavian languages are ET languages.  Unrelated to most other languages on Earth.  Freaks in the north!! Smiley

Yeah, I admit, it was Googlish... I didn't know how to put down "totally," as in "I would totally buy you a beer. " But then I ended up taking it out anyway and since I don't have a hangul keyboard, cut and paste is easier about 10 billion time easier. Smiley


hehe. For the record, the equivelant slang would probably just be "seriously" instead of "totally", so throw 정말 in there.

"정말 술을 한장 꼭 사줄꺼야~!"

Matt, 제가 한국에 있었다면 난 당신에게 맥주 한잔을 살 것이다.

I really need to get over there sometime soon.


Strange grammar. Suspiciously googlish.

  • When I get to Korea, I'll buy you a round. - 제가 한국에도착하면 꼭 맥주 한장사줄겁니다!
  • If I ever get to Korea, I'll buy you a round. - 만약에 한국으로 가면 꼭 맥주 한장사줄겁니다!
  • If I was in Korea, I'd buy you a round. - 제가 한국에있었으면 꾹 맥주 한장사줄겠습니다!

And the most important point of all:

술안먹꺼든! ㅋㅋㅋ

I don't drink. Get a pack of Martenelli's Sparkling Apple Cider and you're on.

I think this whole new system is silly and only highlights those people that throw themselves out there to state an opinion on an issue. Pussys don’t need to worry about their ignore color because they don’t have an opinion on anything.

Who said anything about worrying. I want to see how many people ignore me so I can know if I'm over the top or if I'm doing my job correctly. When half the forum ignores me, that's a bit over the top and I should tone it down. When 1/4th ignores me, I'm doing my job.
You're far from your goal, I think. Time to learn more from bulanova and randyfolds!

Seeing as this has become the thread for all things Terry, I figured I'd let you know how delighted I am to hear that my Ignore button has no imperfections.

*cough* Matthew *cough*
We should start a ranking system for numbers of ignores - Matthew would get the throne!

I know I kid myself thinking that a community of hardnosed libertards would ever embrace someone who has gobs of energy and despises self important academics, but only time will tell.

Besides, no one has to like me to like what I do.
Continue your good work - it's more entertaining since cable TV arrived.
Note that RandyFolds has the darkest ignore button I've seen yet on this forums. Seems you lost  Wink
