RE: Coinbase IRS Situation - People will quickly find out that they don't own any Bitcoins
Casinos use dice all the time, and they are quite serious about money. I understand that there is no "perfect" source of entropy, but as sources go, high-quality casino dice are very good...
Yeah but nobody will spend time and effort to send a bad dice to a casino, because the casino can easily detect if their dices are not good.
But if the dice is used to generate electronic entropy, then someone might boot up a supercomputer and search for autocorrelation in your BTC public key that had bad entropy. it makes your public key less secure, and why would you want that? It could be vulnerable against quantum computers when the come out.
