It is said that Bitcoin has no Terms of Service. And indeed it does not.

May it benefit from having some?

Why wouldn't we sketch some simple and funny terms of service ourselves? In fact since there is no central authority I feel ourselves as good as Bitcoin Foundation for the job Cheesy

Here I have started, anyone can edit and there is a mini-chat. Have fun.
Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Absolutely not. The fact that Bitcoin does not have a Terms of Service (TOS) is one of its greatest strengths! In fact it is the only way to pay online without having to agree to some company's TOS. It is like using cash, silver or gold for in person transactions.

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

You right. What I propose is to reflect on that with totally voluntaristic in nature and mocking text that naturally flows out of design and styled as ToS.

Doesn't apply. Scammers are still able to use Bitcoin  Grin

I think the only one that's really possible is "The blockchain is not responsible for your own stupidity"
