    About Tx Malleability
    This kind of attitude is actually bad for Bitcoin. Saying "It was an issue, Bitcoin is still in experimental phase, but we fixed it." is the proper stance.

    it's not a bug.
    miner don't accept ...  Roll Eyes

    it's only a bug if a 51% miner accept this implicitly.

    the whole open source means that people can tinker with their clients to do alot of things. such as remove some of the checks, like the number check of satoshi available. so that you can send a TX with a billion bitcoins.. but the protocol in everyone elses client and miners wont allow it to enter a block..

    so as long as it does not enter a block, its not a bug. its is instead, part of the whole opensource features

    Why have "Gavin and co" submitted patches to fix the issues with transaction malleability then?

    OP, could you provide a link explaining what you are talking about?
    If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.
