Do you really want to ban holding 12 words in your head? Or maybe you meant private keys to remain legal but let's ban cryptographic signatures? What exactly do

Do you really want to ban holding 12 words in your head? Or maybe you meant private keys to remain legal but let's ban cryptographic signatures? What exactly do you want to make illegal?
- UncleMeat 5y agoThe law works fine without needing to be fully general at the base level. This is the same "illegal number" problem that tech people like to worry about but which isn't actually a problem. The law can distinguish between a private key extracted from some system and an arbitrary pair of prime numbers just fine.
- barneygale 5y agoThis is an american-centric view of the law; elsewhere in the world (including europe) judges don't reach silly decisions because a law was imperfectly drafted.
