Proof of a Bitcoin private key colliding with a Dogecoin private key!!! Any explanations are absolutely welcome.

Against all odds I believe I have proof of a private key collision!

It all started when 25 CLAMs just up and left my wallet without my permission.
Against all odds I believe I have proof of a private key collision!

It all started when 25 CLAMs just up and left my wallet without my permission.

The transaction is shown here.

Notice that my 25 clams left my address of xWAS3PbHr3FBdLsV1s8UYKuwXaJWMsTcjw and ended up at the new address of x8f8YKkNJk6mU92ZmerhWqwqqvZKnTaZ9Y where, at the time of this post, they sit.

The source address is valid and is mine:

validateaddress xWAS3PbHr3FBdLsV1s8UYKuwXaJWMsTcjw

{
"isvalid" : true,
"address" : "xWAS3PbHr3FBdLsV1s8UYKuwXaJWMsTcjw",
"ismine" : true,
"isscript" : false,
"pubkey" : "02fcba7ecf41bc7e1be4ee122d9d22e3333671eb0a3a87b5cdf099d59874e1940f",
"iscompressed" : true,
"account" : "Stake 43"
}

The new address is valid and is not mine:

"ismine" : false
}

Digging into the source address we find that it was originally funded in the airdrop:

This means that the CLAM private key is either a BTC, LTC, or DOGE private key.

FACTS: I have never owned LTC or DOGE and I only imported BTC private keys into my CLAM client. The three possible source addresses for the airdrop are:

22:19:55 INFO: CLAM: xWAS3PbH has the same private key as: BTC: 1Nro9Wkp, DOGE: DSztgmhT, and LTC: Lh5kQj4e

Remember, I only imported BTC private keys. Therefore the only key that could have been mine is the private key for the Bitcoin address of 1Nro9WkpaKm9axmcfPVp79dAJU1Gx7VmMZ

Taking a closer look at that address you will see that the first transaction made on that address was on 2015-06-29 20:35:06. Therefore this could not have been the address used to claim the CLAMS. Also, I do not recognize this address as one of mine and my first CLAM transaction was on 4/19/2017 so I could not have moved the claimed CLAMs off the address on 2015-01-21 19:42:08!

My conclusion is that this address is an address that was generated by my wallet that collided with all this past activity.

The person that owned the DOGE address DSztgmhTsjfS7xxDPyVNeunmBbjaJMfz92 is the person that claimed the CLAMs and them moved them on 2015-01-21 19:42:08.

My client appears to have generated the same private key!

I expect this person noticed 25 CLAMS magically appear in their wallet and then moved them to another address.

I must have incredible luck - which I hope will someday translates into a win in the lottery Wink

If you owned the DOGE address DSztgmhTsjfS7xxDPyVNeunmBbjaJMfz92, used it to claim CLAMs back in 2015, saw 25 CLAM magically appear in your wallet 2017-10-26 13:35:44, moved them 2017-10-31 14:16:16, and are feeling honest or guilty about it let's talk.

I would love another explanation. Right now I am out 25 CLAMs.
