Here is just one example: The US captures an evildoer bitcoin private key with a million dollars in it. The US government forbids Walmart (and other large stores) from accepting bitcoins linked in any way to this evildoer address. Now you can spend some bitcoins at Walmart, unless they are linked to the evildoer bitcoins. QED. Bitcoin is not fungible. Why is this so hard to see? Bitcoin simply isn't fungible YET. Let's stop debating whether or not bitcoin is fungible. That's not a very intelligent debate IMO because bitcoin isn't fungible! I mean WTF? Let's bring the debate down to a new level: HOW DO WE MAKE BITCOIN FUNGIBLE? That's the correct question to be asking at this point. Here is Adam Back's post about his solutions. He just hasn't had the time to implement them yet. submitted by 69520d0f929aeac8 [link] [93 comments] > lees heel artikel
