Can utilizing features ever be fraud?

  I'm not sure. Is utilizing the feature that no guard is watching that expensive bracelet in the store illegal?

    But in all countries where crypto-currencies are not considered money, is it illegal to double-spend bits?

      If I find a funny-looking stone, and promise to give it to you in exchange for goods, it would be fraud to give the funny-looking stone to somebody else instead. Cryptocurrencies are no more "money" than the funny-looking stone, but one could still commit fraud with them.

    Stealing a bracelet from a store is made illegal typically through the force of a state.
