Topic: Is Bitcoin too tainted now? (Read 837 times)
The short answer is, no. Even if it has been somewhere stolen along its line since it was created, it may very well make its way into an honest person's hands via an exchange or purchase of goods or services
Is the dollar tainted?
Consider how much cash has been stolen?
Add to that the amount that's stolen through inflation.
Sheesh... Bitcoin is amoral. It's just a medium to exchange value. But unlike dollars isn't a medium of funding wars and enslaving the whole planet through the petro dollar, and the military that enforces that dollar.

If the Gox coins do turn out to truly be stolen, and you include Sheep, SR2, Pirates ponzi scheme, and the FBI's seizure of SR1 coins, then yes, I believe that would put it well over the 10% mark of current coins mined.
Others can provide more solid numbers, but it would it be fair to say that over 10% of the current coins released have been stolen? Is this too much?
