Weak entropy is closer to the anonymous envelop. There is no way to contact the owner of a wallet created with weak entropy.

But, put it this way: if your mother created a wallet with weak entropy, and you serendipitously found the weak entropy wallet and then took the funds, but you honestly didn't know they were hers until months later when she complained about an anonymous "hacker".

Would you give her, her funds back? Would you tell her you 'just found an anonymous wallet' and so you wouldn't give it back? Would you just stay quiet, lie by omission?

Does this change, if its a stranger?

You asked to have somebody change your mind. I have tried. I have my own answers to the above. I wish you the best, in figuring out your own answers.

Completely agree. It blows my mind how some people don't spend sats when they have the chance "because they want to have bitcoin, not dollars".

Well, fuck, I concur. But if you have an easy way to turn BTC to USD and viceversa, why not Spend & Replace? This helps promote adoption.

These people hoarding BTC that hard as if they were Gollum might find themselves in the future having millions in value but having no use for it because we didn't manage to make a free, black, circular economy before the governments went full authoritarian with CBDCs and against Bitcoin.
