When wallet encryption was first introduced I created a bunch of fake encrypted wallets which purported to own various mixes of high value addresses and seeded edonkey and other similar file sharing tools with them.

Every once in a while I remember this and cackle with a bit of glee of pathetic would be thieves wasting their time grinding away at something which will never yield, and the real wallets they ignore in favor of the trap wallets.
