I would like a way to change the private key of a public address, for this you'd of course require the current private key. Is this at all possible?

Why is this useful you ask?
Untraceable transfer of bitcoins.
Why would we want that you ask?
Financial privacy.

Would love to hear from those who have something meaningful to contribute  Smiley


It is not known to be possible as others said above, but if you end up with the same public address, how it provide untraceability and financial privacy when only the owner of current private key can find different private key colliding with the same public address? It just dont help a bit if it is known method, and if only you know how to do it, it would be big surprise collision ever happened - if anybody noticed, thats it.
