Greetings folks So in this topic I will be talking about Bitcoin fungibility. But first what is fungibility? This simply means something that perfectly works as well as the other.now take for example Ola borrowed 1k from his friend. Definitely the 1k Ola borrowed wouldn't be the same 1k that Ola would return to his friend but then as long as the 1k isn't a fake money , this simply means both Ola and his friend's 1k are fungible.
However when we talk about Bitcoin being fungible, it means that every single 1 Bitcoin must be exactly the same and equal with the others that is who owned it previously should not matter.But the issue now is that people can track any Bitcoin transactions because Bitcoin runs on the Blockchain, and the Blockchain network is a public ledger. Well then it's said that all transactions from every Bitcoins are recorded forever right?. That is to say peradventure if maybe a particular Bitcoin was used for bad things, like hacks and scams or money laundering,is it that if that coin was sent to another person and the person decided to exchange the coins to his or her fiat currency .what is the probability of the exchange not accepting the deal ?.Because to me I believe that after they have seen the history of the coin to be a bad one that alone could possibly cancel the deal and Once that happens based on my research those coins will now be called "tainted" coins which simply means a certain Bitcoin is now less valuable or, most times, useless. That's just it so What do you think folks? If a Bitcoin has a bad history can it really reduce the fact that every Bitcoin can perfectly work as well as the other? Thanks for your time folks.
