Yeah, this is the part of the cryptocurrency I don’t understand… i feel most people are way more likely to need to have a charge reversed because of fraud than to have some payment to them reversed in fraud…why would we want to make the more likely situation impossible to protect against the more rare situation?



Well obviously core users of Bitcoin like ransomware artists don't want their gainz reversed. Most people who really use (as opposed to hodl) bitcoin outside of speculation are criminals.
