Error 404: there seems to be nothing here.
The address in his signature is 1BfxSuxJqXuizBbTcP238JZY9DT4eqvzJG.

This address belongs to the guy who is giving away 1000BTC over here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/1000-btc-giveaway-from-your-friend-rekcahxfb-1574127.

Get your game girl
Addresses are never automatically added to your profile. blockchain.info scans bitcointalk.org to create those labels.
Well, never knew that.So basically blockchain.info scans signature/profiles of every bitcointalk member and when come across the address as a string,it automatically re-name it to the name on the profile,concurrently on the chain?Interesting!

Thanks for the clarification. I must've recalled the feature from some other site.

No offense but your account is brand new and this feature might've been removed years ago, so you wouldn't know.

Bitcointalk does not automatically put btc address on anyone's profile. Either you forget putting this address or you are not the real owner of this account.

I noticed I have a BTC address in my signature (1C3NNQ6Y7Qa7Q3mBSUqMT3v7tnADwh5aio) and I believe this was automatically assigned to my account and tagged at blockchain.info when I signed up here. I believe there used to be a way to withdraw the coins from the address? Does bitcointalk still allow me access to this address or am I remembering everything wrong?
