The paper this refers to [1]. Not waiting for confirmation has nothing to do with double spend. Its a probabilistic measure - the original paper show the poisson distribution, based on number of confirms. Beware of noobs with algebra. "As we show in this work, the propagation of double-spending alerts in the network would constitute a first important step towards efficiently detecting doublespending." The bitcoin project is waiting for their pull-request. [1] http://eprint.iacr.org/2012/248.pdf http://eprint.iacr.org/2012/248.pdf
