Well one thing is for sure. Once the dust settles, the bitcoin community is going to have to have a long hard look at what needs to be done in order to make sure this never happens again. It may be a simple matter of creating more exchanges that are more reliable, or it may be a matter of needing to tweak the rules a little it for how coins are mined and how many, which I know isn't a very popular opinion around here, but we can all agree some things need to be done.

So the increase in volume from mtgox being down caused them to fall over as well.

It seems the exchanges are not able to scale up as bitcoin increases in popularity.

I'm sure they are smart enough to set up permissions do everything via stored procedures. Besides, what are the odds someone would actually do a DROP DATABASE without knowing? It's not the kind of thing you just accidentally do...
I did an unconstrained DELETE FROM TABLE in a production DB one time.

Luckily it was Oracle and I was able to kill the connection which caused the TX to roll back...

The servers are misbehaving.

Our engineers are looking into it.

Makes me a little less worried about the fiat I have deposited there.

Sometimes by misbehaving servers they mean someone accidentally dropped a database Tongue
