It's the politics/society forum?

I realize I don't come on here much, but why is this not acceptable here?

What is "this"? This debate? It is, that's why we're having it here, in this subforum. The concept of a crypto-funded death note itself? That's what's being debated. Sorry, I'm not clear on what you're asking.

I cannot believe that anyone would send bitcoins (thus implicating themselves in a crime) to have someone assassinated. Remember, bitcoins aren't untraceable, and the likelihood that that is "legitimate" is laughable. If you're going to throw away your money, donate it to this poor guy right here.

Well, as we always say, Bitcoin is only as anonymous as the user makes it. Yeah, I could see someone making a really stupid choice that wasn't anonymous at all. I also have concerns that a stolen wallet traceable to an individual could be used as a setup. How's that for a way to get rid of the boss you hate who's always blathering about how rich Bitcoin made him? Access his wallet and fund the presidential hit order?
