Who is the issuer for commodities such as gold, oil or uranium ?
Who is the governing body which controls international disputes over these commodities ?
digital commodities act very differently on these points, so comparison is not that useful.
Craig has not convinced a court yet that he can enforce copyright claims, and at least 4 different people have been granted a copyright of bitcoin's WP, but I would be glad to see him do that. Until then, neither he nor the BA can force miners.
I think most people are fine with saying that the miner's actions are malicious - but that's not the issue, the issue is who gets to dictate the minimum price of transaction or size of blocks. I agree with you that only miners get to decide for now by orphaning the blocks - and it can be acted without waiting, contrary to the long time that it would take to try to use the law to solve this.
