No. Knowing receipt of stolen property is a crime. However, bitcoins are not considered property, nor can they be considered stolen, under current U.S. law.

- politician 14y agoDo you if anyone is compiling a list of stolen addresses?
- hippich 14y agono, because funds might be easily transfered to another address. and after that you need to mark new address as "bad" again. and it become complicated when only part of funds transfered to another address. and it become even more complicated when funds transfered to "pool" address, of big exchanger like mtgox for example. and these funds end up in hands of honest users..
