But you implied above that since intellectual property does not have a physical manifestation, it is somehow not property that should be protected by law. Both Bitcoin and intellectual property are non-tangible assets. Either you believe these should be protected or you don't.

At first, my point was about exclusive ownership: you lose your crypto if transfer it to another person, but you don't lose original copy if you make another.
At second, no sane person will go to authorities about crypto theft because with 99% probability he will be charged for "money laundering". If you own crypto, you keep it in the absolute secret from the state - it is the rule of survival in my country.

That's awful. That's not the way it works in my country, thankfully. Here in the USA, if somebody steals something from you, you go to the authorities. That goes for physical things like your car, or non-tangible things like Bitcoin or your copyrights.

I hope you don't wish for the whole world to work the way your country does, because that sounds like a pretty bad place.

Regardless of my wish, US and EU just now rapidly transforming to the political-economic form of my country (BTW, 90% of world population lives like in my country and NOT the US).
Rejecting universal moral leads to this. I very hope all of you, US govt supporters, will see civil war in US because have really deserved it!
