Even if that happens, I'm not super confident\n\u003e that it would mean people would actively steal from zeroconf businesses\n\u003e in any volume, though. It's not something I'd risk happening to me,\n\u003e but accepting zeroconf from strangers isn't something I'd risk anyway.\n\nFWIW I'm not aware of any zeroconf accepting businesses where exploiting double\nspends can be done without significant legal risk. Bitrefill has significant\nlegal risk, because pretty much everything you buy with Bitrefill can be traced\nto your real world identity. ATMs have less risk. But I haven't seen an ATM\nthat accepts BTC without a confirmation in many years. Nor have I found a\nnon-KYC/AML in-person currency exchange service that would accept funds without a\nconfirmation (yes, I've had to wait 30 mins to get my cash before!). And all\nthe anonymous crypto-exchange websites like FixedFloat require a confirmation.\n\nI have found AML/KYC in-person currency exchange services that would accept\nzero conf. But of course, they had sufficient details on me to just call the\npolice if I double-spent them.\n\nIn practice, there are very few people who are actually affected by zeroconf\ngoing away.\n\n-- \nhttps://petertodd.org 'peter'[:-1]@petertodd.org\n-------------- next part --------------\nA non-text attachment was scrubbed...\nName: signature.asc\nType: application/pgp-signature\nSize: 488 bytes\nDesc: not available\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20221020/3fd904e1/attachment.sig\u003e"}
