I don't care if he has my account number and people know about my miniscule amount of btc.
 
If hackers can:
 
1) find my computer
2) access my computer
3) hack my account
4) hack my truecrypt key
 
Then power to them.  It will, after all, only take 674,909,467,304,392,809,907,186,036.3 years to hash my password at 500 Mhash/sec.
 (tl;dr value:  674 septillion years)

Good luck! Smiley

Interesting list but in my opinion if you are basing it off largest received BTC it really just means who was the most active transferrer not necessarily the richest. For example someone who frequently bets on SD will have a massive amount of BTC received even if their ending balance is zero.

so pathetic how everyone is crapping their pants because someone made a list of PUBLIC information.
If you are scared of hackers, don't place a donation public key on the forum.
Besides, this info is completely useless during the actual 'hacking', if any occurs at all.

Subject: Give me all your bitcoins or else.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Give me your 649 bitcoins or i'll take everything you own, including
your email, how do you think I found you?

Send me your wallet.dat file or ask me for my address so you can send them to.

Sorry Brian Ore, but I just lost my last hot wallet thanks to a bad sudo dd if= command on a Full-Disk encryption harddrive. The rest is scattered among friends and safes in paperwallets.

I'll see about reporting you to authorities tomorrow morning.

Huh.  Well that's interesting.  Shame that the balance on mine isn't at all accurate, hehe.  I've done a lot of transfers to and from (mostly between computers as they tend to keep breaking on me for some reason), re-using the same address just for the sake of it.  Suppose I should have used a different "tip" address for the forums, though then instead of being near the top of your list, I'd be at the bottom with 0 BTC.

It's an interesting "ballpark" indicator of overall wealth distribution though, I'll grant you that.

A well done clickable hover over even.  I see the point on disrupting others design, partial reasons for wanting to customize the skin.
Now that's a really good concept, changing the buttons, which will never fit to all pages, to a hover menu.

I am using Bitcoin Tool all the time, I find it very useful, so I am wondering why other people are not eager to try it out.
1. People don't see benefits.

I tried it out, and immediately uninstalled it. I see the benefits, but don't personally feel they outweigh the drawback: messing up web designers' carefully-crafted page layouts.

What I'd prefer, would be an extra option in the context-menu, just under "Search Google for 'blah'", that says "Search Blockexplorer for 'blah'".

So I can select, and right-click as normal.
It's a good idea, but an extra option in the right-click context menu is impossible in a Greasemonkey extension. I'd have to develop separate add-on extensions for each browser FF/Chrome/IE.
So I think it has to stay as is. The extension is easy to turn off - one click in Firefox.

Well, here, since you have that in your signature.  I guarantee if it looked like this button .. you will get more clicks.  I made these since I had Photoshop open:



You will notice on the forums here they would of course not stand out like your current buttons, but people will notice them in your signature I believe.  Maybe not notice them as much as the current button look, however I believe it is more inviting and trusting to click these.  So maybe less views but more conversion.

An alternate look could be, when you hit Reply or New Topic, the "Post" and "Preview" buttons have a nice thick look similar to your current ones, but also slightly more inviting than the ones you have.
I like the new buttons. Today I am too busy/lazy to add them, but I definitely want to try them out.

In my opinion this thread does not expose any information, that was not exposed previously.
I do realize you posted information that is just out there, you have found a way to easily gather and present it and allow people to just view it in a different way.  I will stop commentary on how you are handling your PR and get to..

I started thinking on that. I'd need to figure out how to do persistent storage for my script in three browsers FF/Chrome/IE, and I'd need to write a html dialog to customize skins. It is at least one day of work. I think it has to wait. Maybe when there will be 2000 installs and more people will tell me that they need it. If there are good suggestions about the looks (colors? margin & padding of buttons? spacing? fonts?), maybe I could change now the default skin.

Really? I thought dozens of people on these forums had 1000s of BTC...Someone please clarify.

Unfortunately (or fortunately), the addresses in most people's signatures are just for the forums (mine is).  So, the only thing you see in the blockchain is how much I've receive TO THAT ADDRESS.  It has ZERO bearing on my total BTC wealth (or lack thereof), unless I then move everything to a central location (which I don't). 

I use, and most people do, separate addresses for each mining pool, each forum, and each transaction.

Don't forget reason 3, trust.    Security breaches every day fucks up trust, obviously.    Posting this thread exposing a lot of information, not going to help build trust.    The selling of the Reddit account with the Bitcoin domain, probably didn't help either.   There are many reasons why people aren't using it.
In my opinion this thread does not expose any information, that was not exposed previously.

I think 90% of users do not care much about what is written on this forum, so building trust for this app is just mostly the matter of writing the right copywriting pitch that solves all doubts, choosing the web layout, presenting the app in a context familiar for a user, making the right screenshots, and so on. The product is all right, now the way to popularity is taking the marketing and conversion rate perspective.

Me, I just want the ability to customize my own skin, I'm not too hard to please lol
