I don't think this discussion is going anywhere, but you most certainly can irrevocably lose money with wire fraud. Even many debit cards are not covered from fraud.

And we are comparing Bitcoin and wire fraud.



OK so you basically don't have any response on how to distinguish Bitcoin being given to someone vs being stolen without centralized entities being involved, got it. I won't be responding to you anymore since you have nothing to add.


Yes, exactly like you can't distinguish wiring money to someone intentionally vs wire fraud.
