@briankrebs@infosec.exchange It’s almost as if there’s a reason modern banking systems require a mechanism to reverse fraudulent transactions.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @briankrebs@infosec.exchange Bitcoin is not a bank. It’s closer to string of characters, glued together with some code.

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange Indeed. The thought of sending money to anyone without needing the approval of some unaccountable bureaucracy is certainly alluring, but the absence of any bureaucracy creates this thorny little problem. Cash has the same problem, of course, but at least the bad guys have to physically break into your home to steal that. @briankrebs@infosec.exchange
