The following is a dump of full HTML files (identifying parts removed) of private Bitcoin Foundation discussions on Bitcoin blacklisting, transaction reversing, and create a new proof of work called "proof of sacrifice" for asset forfeiture.

Proof-of-sacrifice has nothing to do with asset forfeiture. It's an idea I came up with last year, which was subsequently developed further by myself and Mike Hearn for various applications. It's just a way of making a (potentially) anonymous crypto-identity expensive to obtain, which is useful for things like controlling spam on (pseudo-)anonymous discussion forums. For instance BitMessage could have used it in favor of direct proof-of-work.

OP: Please correct your post.

Yup... and it's a brilliant idea. I love it. How OP linked this to asset forfeiture is anyone's guess. Too much wacky baccy? I suggest everyone read the article at medium: https://medium.com/p/d3f9f299f729 (it was published 5 weeks ago btw).
