If you take 1.0 BTC when its worth $80, is it proper to pay back 1.0btc, or $80?

i'm not trying to slag OP at all.  i'm just wondering what happens when someone steals bitcoin, and then pays it back at a later date.  

I did that in the past, i scammed 2 btcs, but someone was selling btcs for usd and i bought two of them for 220 usd, but scammed him, techically i stealed 220 usd not 2 btcs.. so in this case the correct would be to return the 220 usd not the btcs right?

Bcause i did that in the past, and i thing i did the correct thing, because he wouldt have held the btcs i stealed from him, he wanted to sell them, if i havent bought them, someone else have bought.



No, you stole 2 BTC, you owe 2 btc... BTC isn't USD.. If I steal your $50,000 car and wait for its value to drop to $2000 and buy you another.. did I make up for it?
