Topic: What will happen to blacklisted coins? (Read 3617 times)
If I am not mistaken, there might be a way to cleanse blacklisted coins with the collusion of a relatively large miner provided that you can transmit the transaction to nobody else but the miner. Basically you broadcast a transaction with tainted inputs with a larger than normal fee to the miner. The miner does not rebroadcast the transaction, but attempts to include it into a block. After the miner successfully includes the transaction into a block, he keeps a small portion of the fee for himself and surreptitiously sends the rest back to you. Since the fee portion is no longer tainted, what he sends back to you are clean coins. The remaining, still-tainted, coins go to addresses that you control. You then rinse and repeat the processes until the tainted coins have been spent as miner fees.
Can this work?
Can this work?
blacklist coin may be removed or not used anymore 
I will buy your blacklisted coins for 50% of the spot rate.
Exactly. No one would want such coins.
I want them. And I'll pay 60% if we are bidding here.
It Will not be blacklisted cause its BLOCKCHAIN .. It will not work , if one is blacklisted
So? It does not matter if that is blockchain or not. If you think bitcoin could be mass adopted without regulations and changes you are deceiving yourself. Government intervention in the bitcoin industry is simply inevitable. It is only matter of time, when government will start to think seriously about bitcoin your opinion will mean nothing to them.Their opinion means nothing to Bitcoin

Some people do not follow the politics of the bitcoin community so a shady seller can sell his coins sooner or later.
coins that have been blacklisted certainly is not going to be used
only a matter of time until the coin is in the clear
Yes, that is the obvious thing for all the seized things. People may confuse when it come with digital things. Digital goods are not exempted to use after a seize by government. The black listed coins also will be sold to public, then it will become white listed if you may prefer to name it. only a matter of time until the coin is in the clear

blacklist ?
not in the Bitcoin Network ...
Agree, if blacklisting will take place, it will be the end of bitcoin as we know it. not in the Bitcoin Network ...
I don't see how coins could ever be irrevocably blacklisted unless Bitcoin itself was hijacked in which case it doesn't matter any more because it would be worthless.
There's no shortage of voluntary blacklisting going on right now. That's easily sidestepped with a few nifty moves.
The amount of Bitcoin users is still low enough and committed enough to make a real difference by voting with their feet and shunning those who blacklist. In most cases though it's not the blacklisters who want to be doing this, it's The Man breathing down their neck.

But there might be a way to check coins against a list of scammed coins. What would you do when you receive coins? Checking them? Or don't care and risking that you have problems with these coins?
In fact this can be done very easily and it only needs some who fear getting such coins to become a problem.

It would be better if they deleted wallet files of those black listed coins. Because burning the bitcoins is the most welcome thing among bitcoin community.
So, burn it. USually they sell them in auction. People start using it as usual.

Are those guys aware that every coin in the world most likely has gone true silkroad just like every 50 dolla bill is used to sniff cocaine or to trow at a hooker? How is it even possible that bitcoin XT is launched?
I am really losing faith in bitcoin. If it becomes centralized it isnt worth more then citybankcoin.

Those who will not like it will not use Bitcoin, there is and always will be many other payment systems.

Exactly. No one would want such coins. Even when it is only the hassle of losing privacy. We then would have bitcoins that have a normal value and those with a lower value.
And this would mean losing trust in bitcoin since no one wants to receive undervalued coins. The alternative would be to use services that check coins. But if that would be a good solution for privacy?
I agree it would require centralization, and I don't think they will go through the pain of putting it to work.
It is doubtful that they work hard to impose an unpopular measure like that.

I'm pretty sure Bitpay has already begun the practice of blacklisting.

Blacklisted coins isn't the way to go. Blacklisting coins requires a central authority to list the blacklisted coins and they would not be accepted. This would cause a huge issues with the already limited supply of Bitcoin, if a large hack happens, all of those coins would be blacklisted. By blacklisting them, you are implying that the owner is a criminal which can be untrue if the scammer exchanges it to fiat by using an exchange or mixer. It's just like banknotes, there are traces of cocaine everywhere even if the owner doesn't take drugs.
