Re: Funny brainwallet

I typed "I invented bitcoin" and it gave me this pub address: 1GodKLaaQrNuFpHhNsf3os8DpziDz1ukDx

Is it a coincidence or am I GOD? Shocked

You do realize that you have essentially compromised your brain wallet to the point that any coins transferred to that address would be likely stolen?

I don't think he's going to actually use it. And even if he didn't tell us in this thread, it would still have been a pretty poor brainwallet that would have been compromised sooner or later anyway.

You are probably right about it probably being compromised regardless if he posted on the thread, however, by posting on this thread, he all but guaranteed that it would be compromised.

What would be the point of generating a brainwallet like this if he had no intention of ever using it?

Umm... I don't think he ever intended to use it. He was probably just mucking around and putting random words in the passphrase field at Brainwallet.org and seeing if anything funny comes up.

Some people make very interesting uses of their free time. I never imagined people making a brain wallet without the intention of using it or attempting to use it.
