Well I have seen things like this happen more often.
It basically is a company/coin/whatever that wants to attract attentions, and sends out a large number of very small amounts to known used addresses, and hope that the receiver will check out who sent it.

Marketing of this kind does not make sense. The owner of the wallet will see only one address and will hardly search further as the owner, or if it is a famous wallet.

This usually happens with Tokens. But I do not know if it makes any sense make this with BTC. He probably has received some tip from someone from a job or service he provided.

Obviously, it's kinda like it is and there is no way that they know his wallet address unless he tells it to them via signing up or whatever it is just to reveal his entire address. Also, it could be a spam for those who joined something just like what some people said at the top, it might be at any airdrop group.

that's good, but I'm not interested, I think it doesn't make me satisfied. it is a very small value. so, I better choose trading, bounty, and investment to get profits from BTC world.

I think it's possible that you are following an airdrop or telegram bot that gets a salary of 500 satoshi. Then the airdrop or telegram bot pays not using satoshi but directly with bitcoin.

Strange, the wallet sends bitcoins just like that. I understand that the amount is small, but still the question is why. At the moment, many transactions have been made, each of which is 0.00000546 BTC. Total was distributed in the amount of 0.02365002 BTC. Looks like Airdrop!

nothing about "spam" is funny! and the amount of bitcoin you received is going to cost you more than it paid you or at the very least it is going to be a nuisance when you have to deselect that particular transaction output each time you want to make a new transaction so that it doesn't increase your transaction size.

not to mention that it is a new unspent transaction output which nodes have to have in their memory from now on for no reason!

i think i learned something , bu trust me i wont advertise/spam service like this Cheesy

Are you sure you didn't just sign up with their service or something?

I wouldn't be surprised if this was some form of welcome bonus, or may could just be an attempt at promotion by OP.

I'm not going to lie, I wouldn't think twice about finding or seeing this show up in a wallet.

I say this is no joke. Because they will not send the amount of BTC without knowing your BTC address. So, I want you to recall that. You may have participated in an airdrop campaign that was paid for with BTC.

no promotion mate (though ridiculous amount Grin

) i don't share my btc addresses on public, not interested in forum campaigns or others . i'm not sure how they find my address but probably random .
