That doesn't mean they Linode can't be sued and forced to reimburse the losses.

This doesn't make sense, why would you have a hot wallet with 10K BTC? Why would it ONLY be stored on a Linode VPS?
Hadn't bitcoinica gone all quiet for some time before this happened?
I think this is just a handy way to release some old bad news.

I disagree, whatever happened, happened today. I move coins all the time in and out of bitcoinica without an issue.

I'm sorry but this looks like an inside job at Linode to me. There is also the theft from slush and the bitcoin faucet (and who knows who else), so a total of over 13,000 BTC or about 65K USD market value. Supposedly some outside hacker knew different high value sites would have Bitcoin wallets on Linode?

People have been stealing MONEY since they were first created. Has that stopped people using it?

People have been stealing USD since they were first created. Has that stopped people using it?
No, but if somebody steals a bunch of USD I can still go to the store the next day and buy the same amount of stuff I could the day before with the USD I have.

That's why
we should support BIP16 as soon as possible...

the point is the thieves consider Bitcoin valuable.
March 01, 2012, 09:41:08 PM
yep.
Then why has the price not dropped at all on this news... It has instead been fairly bullish today.
You better hope the thieves actually want bitcoin and not USD.
Or they could want thousands of other things you can get for BTC.
proudhon is just praying for the short

Many of you have heard that several bitcoin services were victims of a recent Linode security breach today. Unfortunately, Bitcoinica is also among the services affected.
et tu, zhou-te?
there's more coming too i bet.
