Any stealing act for anything to anyone is still illegal wether it is online pr not.All stealing avt is considered a crime as long as you dont have permissions of the real owner

The real owner? Who decides that if it's possible for me to generate the same address? Just because I generated it after shouldn't mean it's illegal. It's not like exploiting an online wallet to steal private keys and drain the accounts.

I feel like you guys are just guessing to be honest, I want to know if it's legal or illegal to take bitcoins out of an address you just generated. Tongue

well it's impossiBle to answer something thats never Been done By anyone EVER ;P   Not much to Base an answer on ;p

for me, its property, you cant steal another person property

IF you generate an addy and it HAS BTC on it?  SOMEONE PUT IT THERE AND ITS THEIR PROPERTY Wink
