Like the title says what are the rules. If I miraculously got a private key to a wallet that had Bitcoin in it but was not mine originally then does that mean I now own the wallet like finders keepers and is there any legality issues with this in the usa,uk,canada,south america. Is this more of a morality should you or should you not.
Since it's a miracle, if you find a wallet and it has bitcoins in it, you're in trouble for that wallet.
I want to tell you not to use that wallet. Return the wallet you found and if the rightful owner gets it you will be well served and if you use that wallet it will be stolen and people treated unfairly also I heard the law is the same as UK, USA, Canada and South America If you are very active in the country then you will have problems you may get caught.
If you accidentally found someone's bitcoin wallet, would you really return it to its owner? Honestly , I'm skeptical of people who say this to try to be good people . The line between good and evil is very thin and if I were in that situation, I don't think I would be able to play the role of a perfect good person .
Personally, I've never been in that situation, but honestly, I don't know what I would do with bitcoin . If it was a large sum worth millions of dollars then I think it would be hard not to be tempted, I think I would just return it to the owner if the amount of bitcoins was too small for me . We should be honest, don't try to live a lie. We work hard and diligently to earn a few satoshis every day and it would be a lie to say that we will return to the owners when we find a few bitcoins or a few dozen bitcoins .
