Hi bitcoiners,
Commission might sound weird but in this case it's appropriate. I don't know about you, but I've been scammed out of bitcoins many times during the years. I've lost more than 10,000 EUR for the last 5 years to scammers - either theft or transaction reversals. Every time I start to get ahead someone steals or reverses transactions with me and I end up losing my hard earned bitcoins or cash, depending on the transaction.
This is because scammers think that Bitcoin is irreversible. Actually - it is! With a 51% attack - requiring a lot of hash power.
I say we, the bitcointalk users, speak in person with representatives from blockchain to unite force and with enough evidence be able to get the coins money back from thieves and back to the rightful owners.
I propose a commission to be created from moderators, notable users, scam victims here and to investigate every payment reversal. If enough evidence is found - we just inform blockchain, provide details to them and they do the rest. If necessary reverse/downgrade the blockchain in large fraud cases!
I am tired of people stealing and getting away with it. Paypal, Skrill and various payment methods are doing it just because they can, and they're never held liable. The only difference is that our commission is going to retrieve bitcoins back from scammers after solid evidence are provided.
People deserve to get back their stolen money, that they've mined or worked for, and just because bitcoin is not centralized, doesn't mean that we have to sit and take this abuse!
