Dabs: SHA-256 isn't used to sign transactions. You can't use it to steal money directly. You could exploit weaknesses by forking the blockchain, or, more practical, just earn a lot of BitCoins by mining at a not-too-suspicious rate. Even then, you need something better than just the ability to find a random collision.
