Is it possible to fine the bit coins that were stolen and then effectively devalue them? One thing the miners should be able to do is refuse to verify transactions with the stolen BTC.



There is always that option. But what if you got some bitcoins today that turned out to have been stolen two months ago?

It might be a good idea, but it's antithetical to the community.
