Re: Exchange accidentally sent 512 bitcoins after coding error
If a friend lends you a 100-dollar-bill, the physical process of him giving it to you is not reversible. Yet you give it back, unless you are an anti-social asshole.
That's a verbal contract with the explicit obligation to return the money.Anyone who says "tough luck" or "coders fault" here, should go back to the jungle or maybe in jail. But probably even there, some decency exists.
This post? Here on the same forums where there are multiple pyramid schemes, ponzi schemes, scammers, admitted real estate fraudsters, and a BTC loan-bank that can't even get its customers to pay back their loans?Really?
Last I checked, Ayn Rand wasn't ever a politician with the authority to write laws. Ever remember what happened to the person who tried offering parts of the Columbia space shuttle wreckage on eBay? Would getting penetrated by Bubba in prison be equivalent to getting penetrated by bullets in your view?
I've been reading these forums since before mtgox hit $30/btc, and RAND IS LAW here.
