I've been reading up on the theory ever since Perks told us about the spells. And I do think it's all right. It's protective magic for yourself: you use your own blood on your own coin only. And the compulsion spell is only to make you not do something--betray the network, or the coin group, or whatever we call it.
What clinched it for me was Terry saying he was all right with the idea, that he had a good gut feeling about it. He thinks those 'feelings' he gets are part of his magic, and they've been good guidance so far. I expect he's the most personally familiar of all of us with blood spells, because of Carrow. And if he's willing to do it, that's good enough for me. Does that help?

Are you sure it's okay? With the spells Sally-Anne Perks and Hermione put on it? The blood spell, I mean. And the compulsion one.
