Topic: 2.5 BTC stolen i wanna cry :-( - page 4. (Read 8187 times)
Every person that goes through this is a person that potentially will not be bothered to use BTC again..
Not necessarily true. I've had a ton stolen - you learn what you did wrong and move on. If you get held up on the street and get your wallet stolen, does that mean you will never use cash or credit card again?

I wouldn't say so. BTC is extremely safe if used right.
And we don't even know what happened. OP refuses to say how he generated the vanity address or give more information.
Sorry to hear that. But did you feel like crying after someone stole $600 from you? We seem to get way too emotional with BTC. Probably we expect too much from it. When we stop expecting we begin to get some very pleasant surprises. Just two bits of borrowed wisdom.
What's wisdom in that?!
2.5 is a lot of BTC! Losing that much really hurts! Sorry OP, that really stinks.
Bitcoin really is the modern day Wild West. If you haven't had your bitcoin stolen yet you're missing a life experience. But that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt to have it happen to you!

It's pretty vague what happened- could you explain to us better what actually happened? The details?
You're Girl scout?
yes :-( I guess electrum is safer wallet and will be trying to use it from now :-(
Can you explain better "what is happened"?
I signed onto blockchain.info to send some BTCs somewhere and my balance said 0.00 i looked and thhat was the last transfer to that address every fkn coin ughhhhh this sucks
So you're the famous girlscout on luckybit
I often see you betting
I'm sorry for your lost.
You should figure out how does he steal your money and prevent the issue from recurring.
$500 is a big amount... but now nothing can be done about it. It is time to forget about the past and move forward. Work hard, and within a month you will be able to collect a few coins.
call BTC and make a complaint LOL.
Well, you learnt a lesson. Do not store in BTC more than you cannot afford to lose. keep the money in your bank account/card...not in BTC shit
Just keep a offline wallet..Im sure it is safer than banks..! Well, you learnt a lesson. Do not store in BTC more than you cannot afford to lose. keep the money in your bank account/card...not in BTC shit
I got new computer and electrum
Why did you buy a new computer?
well i figure if i do have some kiind of virus getting a new computer would be easy way to solve that problem and be sure
You could have just reinstalled windows or whatever os u have.. or restore it to factory settings...it whould have functioned like a new PC.

You shouldn't login into your wallet on Windows system or add the email to your wallet, that's not secure and when your email got hacked, you will lost your wallet too.

I do not get it, if you will use it the same way as your old one then you will face the same problem soon
