Topic: MtGox (alleged) dust problem, solutions? (Read 5845 times)

I'm guessing that you see that there are many sources to your transaction? There's nothing wrong with this.
When you want to transfer BTC from one address to another and the output doesn't match the exact amount you want to transfer, you'll always have a transaction with two outputs. One output which contains the desired sum and the other output is the change. MtGox typically creates a new address for every change, so it means that there will be plenty of addresses which contains change. When another person makes a withdrawal I assume that MtGox wants to get rid of all "change" addresses (that contains small amounts) first which is the reason why you see so many sources.

i browsed some addresses from which MtGox sent me btc and saw this https://blockchain.info/address/1MiCRoEgje2a8U1FthQGDAwaWabDbcBsTe

I have ordered 93 bitcoin withdraw to my wallet 2 days ago. No bitcoins, no balance, no support.

2014/02/03 20:09:00   Withdraw    93.36747041 BTC   0.00100000 BTC

What the fuck? Mtgox scam?

How can I contact technical support? I can not wait 10 days ...

did you deal with  bitinstant?
If you ever used bitinstant in the past, I bet MtGox just locked the funding options on your account

It's great you guys get a chance to re-roll.  Today my coins were returned to my account after nine days. Now I am locked out of funding options entirely...

"Your account has been restricted from accessing funding options. Please contact [email protected] for additional information on why your account has been restricted."

bump for helpful suggestions

Had funds stuck for 10 days.  They finally (after ignoring support tickets) returned them today.  I decide to split the amount they owe in half.  First withdraw works.  Second withdraw nowhere to be seen on the network.  Take a look at the raw tx from their API.  Yup it is a double spent of a payment they made days ago.

So they haven't fixed anything.  The issue still remains they just gave all users a chance to roll the dice again.

damn
this is disgusting!
fucking mtgox!

So 10 days after initially starting transfer I log in today to see the btc back in my account.  Under history the reason for withdrawal cancelation was timeout.  I have tried again and it is not going through as before.  FUCK

I made a withdrawal 2 days ago. So far, I have not returned to balance! Support service is not responding! What can I do? Help me pls!

This is INSANE!

Look at https://data.mtgox.com/api/0/bitcoin_tx.php

I found my stuck transaction in there:

b2ab0930acbc18e9ba4d5415025ed6022ad8b0c657b4ec51edbf5caa628c5295

which decoded looks like this:

"hash": "b2ab0930acbc18e9ba4d5415025ed6022ad8b0c657b4ec51edbf5caa628c5295",
            "tx_p": {
                "hash": "b2ab0930acbc18e9ba4d5415025ed6022ad8b0c657b4ec51edbf5caa628c5295",
                "ver": 1,
                "size": 257,
                "in": [
                    {
                        "prev_out": {
                            "hash": "2a9085d5476aa3965e498af7245d9271d632ce01f159a6d5f445b91404927070",
                            "n": 0
                        },
                        "scriptSig": "(redacted)",
                        "addr": null
                    }
                ],
                "out": [
                    {
                        "value_int": 200000000,
                        "value": 2,
                        "scriptPubKey": "OP_DUP OP_HASH160 fbee2a88bccf3cffa026d3cc7f10da6526293262 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG",
                        "addr": "fbee2a88bccf3cffa026d3cc7f10da6526293262"
                    },
                    {
                        "value_int": 587623433,
                        "value": 5.87623433,
                        "scriptPubKey": "OP_DUP OP_HASH160 90433401824d03160d00b4e5f3a5f1a133c46e50 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG",
                        "addr": "90433401824d03160d00b4e5f3a5f1a133c46e50"
                    }
                ]
            }

The only input to my transaction is:

2a9085d5476aa3965e498af7245d9271d632ce01f159a6d5f445b91404927070 (and it wants to use output 0 of that transaction)

Looking up this on blockchain it shows a current balance of: 7.87723433 BTC
And 2 + 5.876 is pretty close to that balance but not quite (any difference is going to be miner's fee)

However, there are 6 other transactions also claiming from the same output!

So currently, I have 1/6 chance of getting this output. WHY is MtGox doing this? The Bitcoin protocol clearly says that you have to consume the whole output and now there are 6 transactions claiming the same output!

Argh!

then why even bother and tell us this?

But my failed transaction had 2 inputs and 2 outputs!

Is there a way to keep  the kilobytes low?

Large means large as in many kilobytes, not large as in many BTC

WTF!? 2 BTC is a large TX now?
