The rightfull owner could send you a signed message, BUT if i would be the owner, i would have no idea who to contact. I dont think alot of people are reading your thread. It could be any wallet... maybe a cold storage or something. You could wait years before someone show up. And even if the one realizes, his coins are gone, how could he know you took them.
I know. Some prominent place where to announce this?

Theres no point in acting surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for 50 of your Earth years, so youve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and its far too late to start making a fuss about it now.
What do you mean youve never been to Alpha Centauri? Oh, for heavens sake, mankind, its only four light years away, you know. Im sorry, but if you cant be bothered to take an interest in local affairs, thats your own lookout. Energize the demolition beams.

I think you are at a point where you have to decide if you want to stop this, because you have proven it works, or if you want to continue, but this could be called theft. Which way you will go?
I am at a point, where I am shocked, because if it turns out I was right about the BTC PK search space, "stopping this", is like you have a patient with inner bleeding, you have proven he has inner bleeding, but you just turn away, because you think "no see no harm" is a good strategy.
Seriously?
I can stop it and tomorrow a chinaman (or whoever - just an example) decides to set up a clandestine GPU farm doing exactly that.
@becoin: Too bad I see just "this user is ignored". Perhaps you should have spilled out less shit. Maybe someone else can answer you - I'm not in the mood to unignore you right now.
