In that case you're robbing the people who own the corporation (shareholders). They're the victims, not the corporation itself. A corporation is owned by people. It is not "made of…

That would be true if owning bitcoins had intrinsic value, but they only have value in terms of the things they can purchase, so no. Bitcoin maturity will actually cause bitcoins t…
