I sort of agree with the money being returned ethically. But isn’t one of the points of crypto decentralization and deregulation and at that point, courts shouldn’t really have jurisdiction?
Please correct me if I’m wrong since I am not really interested in digging into crypto beyond high level details.
- glofish 4y agoit has absolutely nothing to do with ethics, decentralization, deregulation or crypto. it is about correcting an error (an obvious and clear cut one at that). Getting a wire by error from another bank would fall under the exact same guidance. had the error gone the other way around, instead of 100 she would have gotten only 1 dollar back as refund because someone mistyped a number, she and everyone else would have argued that the error should be rectified promptly, no? In cases like this it is exceedingly important to note whether the error was obvious or not at the recipient's side. It determines whether the receiving party is acting with malice or not. By spending money knowingly that is not yours you are commiting a crime.
