Altcoin.ac domain name for sale

Altcoin.ac domain name is for sale
Descriptive, the extension AC also points out to altcoin

Altcoin.com was listed and most likely sold for 12 btc (nearly $1.2M at the time of sale)
You can have Altcoin.ac for a fraction of that price

I wanted to create an altcoin related project on that domain but don't have time
The domain is registered with Dynadot, we can use their transfer assistant, you just need an account there

Offers are welcome, PM me

You did not directly say you know anything, but you are alluding to it, you sent an email to Karpeles requesting to know if there are active claimants to the 'stolen' funds in the 1feex address, and you also asked him for the Japanese police contacts that investigated him, surely it does not take much to figure out that you are alluding to know something.

maybe, maybe not. or I'm just messing with you out of boredom. but I got the info I asked for, not from Karpeles but from another person and that's exactly what I was looking for in the first place

But if you are genuine, the Trustee for handling repayments to Gox's creditors is called Nobuaki Kobayashi.  Contact them.  They'll be far more actively involved than Karpeles is.  Even if Karpeles wasn't a useless, grossly negligent tit, the insolvency means it's likely that he's not even permitted to be involved in the proceedings by this point.  The lawyers are in charge now.


//EDIT:  These lawyers, specifically if you can't figure out how to contact them.  And some other lawyers involved are listed here.


thank you for the links. that's exactly what I was looking for

it's funny how I didn't mention any of it here but you still sound like you know the contents of my emails.

What choice do you give us when you allude to knowing something but won't disclose what?


I'm not supposed to tell anyone except the police or the lawyers. I just asked for the claimants info and the other guy started it.

As for Kobayashi, I saw this name on mtgox papers but there is no contact info of him

I will tell the police when I find their contact info or I tell to the claimants rep if there's any

Besides, you sound like you have some info or dirt on him, why don't you go through it legally, if you know who has the funds or who stole it why don't you go to the police or contact the trustee of the MtGox case? You make it sound like you're one step away from blackmailing him! Is that what you want?


it's funny how I didn't mention any of it here but you still sound like you know the contents of my emails.
yes, I might have some dirt, not on him personally maybe but it's for the police to decide.
and I already asked Karpeles for the Japanese police contacts, those who investigated him, he acts like he's trying
to sit it out rather than help finding the bad guy.
yes, I might know in which direction to look for the hacker.
no, I'm not trying to blackmail him but if he was interested in solving this case, he would've answered me

I tried to ask Karpeles @MagicalTux directly via email but he doesn't seem to bother replying back to me.

You contacted Mark over email about a thing he has been in court over and over and years after the court decision you actually think he will reply to a stranger and tell him everything? For real?

and why is it answering my email should be a problem? if there's a group of claimants, he could've simply gave me the info.
besides, it's in his best interest to get back to me, he knows why

1. When did they merge? I know it was possible to use blockchain.info for logging in sometime earlier but not anymore

2. Was it possible to use Bitcoin address as an ID? If so, what was the principle behind it? Was it possible to use
just any address i.e. 1BitcoinEater..... as your log in info or was it only possible to use an address that was provided to you by the BC wallet?

To get the best results out of keyhunt, what exactly do you need - powerful CPU, RAM, what else?
What would be the best hardware combination (the one you can buy in store and not some Google supercomputer) to get it to the maximum?

Electrum doesn't see/recognize a certain wallet private key
by
shlomogold
on 02/01/2023, 11:58:17 UTC
There's a private key found on the internets to a wallet that was supposedly Satoshi's 50 btc.
I guess somebody cracked it somehow, got the fifty and let people know the private afterwards.
When I enter that private key to my Electrum wallet I see nothing.
There's no history even though you can see its transactions on blockchain.
Looks like Electrum deliberately blocking this particular key. Why?

The key: 5KGLRScL6BqRkWnB8kTtoJmj21GT2W4KHpHJ2AA6vewuqM3tFVM
Tte address: 1NChfewU45oy7Dgn51HwkBFSixaTnyakfj

For one thing, "human" randomness is not random enough since we just replace numbers with more predictable ones, unlike a computer. And I'd be hard-pressed to find a private key that happens to have what I call "human randomness" entropy/bits in it.


I typed what I typed, was blindly hitting the keypad, deleting, adding, without thinking. Hard to call it a real randomness but still..
BTW, one might think there's a trick, lets say, I used one of my old private keys which I entered into their search. But the thing is that that website doesn't show you the page the key is on when you enter one. You can enter your old private key, it will show you calculated public key and other stuff, but it doesn't say which page it is on. So as strange as it is, looks like  I did the impossible?

now to my question. I'm bad with large numbers. could anyone tell me the probability of randomly finding a private key wallet with transaction given the fact that that 'database' supposed to have 10e +77 private keys and there was only 1 billion transactions and I happen to find one?
or to rephrase it - there are less than 100,000,000 wallets in use and I've randomly found one. what are the chances of that?

Ummmmm, buy a lottery ticket today Smiley

I am not sure on the numbers but you finding a random page with a used wallet has to be pretty high/astronomical.


I thought somebody would say something about the lottery ))

At first it didn't even shock me, but then I started calculating, so it must be a ratio: 1,000,000,000 (a number of all transactions) to 10 e+77 or 100,000,000 (a number of all the wallets) to 10 e+77. I'm lost with all the zeros so I can't calculate the accurate probability.

let's talk about probability in general. there is this website where you can generate private keys on the fly and check their balance (lots of websites like this one actually but I was using a specific one).
so the total number of pages is: 2573157538607026564968244111304175730063056983979442319613448069811514699875

I was randomly typing digits, adding and erasing some when I came across page 257315753860702656496824411130417573006305698397944231
(https://privatekeys.pw/keys/bitcoin/257315753860702656496824411130417573006305698397944231)

there is a private key wallet that had had a transaction in 2018 (now it's empty).
so I did a little math. the average number of transactions in 2020 was 300,000 daily. in 2021 it was 400,000 daily.
before 2020 it was less but lets say it was 200,000 a day. so roughly there was about 73,000,000 transactions a year or 730,000,000 transactions in 10 years.
so by a very rough estimate it was nearly one billion transactions in Bitcoin network over all (I don't have real statistics though I'm pretty sure it exists somewhere). 

now to my question. I'm bad with large numbers. could anyone tell me the probability of randomly finding a private key wallet with transaction given the fact that that 'database' supposed to have 10e +77 private keys and there was only 1 billion transactions and I happen to find one?
