What was the intention of your experiment? I find the outcome interesting but don't get why would you do that on a first place.

The first thing I did when seeing private keys in the documentation was to check if they had anything in them. When they came up empty, I figured someone else would come along and do the same thing. I suppose my experiment was to see how quickly it would happen.

Future experiments best to use testnet
