No that's not the same at all. A stolen bitcoin is a real bitcoin. A fake dollar is not a real dollar.

>If you're not on top of the latest hacks and get some bitcoin that were stolen you'll be at a loss.
We are talking about blacklist that would make a stolen bitcoin, no longer a real bitcoin and thus be at lost. If you consider it still a real bitcoin, how can you consider it a loss? If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. If it doesn't... it's probably not...
You talk about being on top of the latest hacks... isn't the same as being on top of the latest counterfeited money?
