security problems are going to be the end of bitcoin.
No more than with any other financial system. All this all will do is encourage better security and strengthen the system in the long run. Trial by fire.
i was holding 400 btc of other peoples money and I was hacked today.
And you're responsible for that. Unfortunate, but that's the way it goes.
at least if you keep real money in your house and someone tries to break in and steal it you can fight them off
And they could be "sneaky" and break into your house when you're not home and take that ~7000 usd from under your bed... You kept all your eggs in one basket, in one wallet file (as opposed to a "savings account"), and you got compromised.
Bitcoins, like cash, can be stored safely offline, away from the clutches of the hackers. You neglected to do that and were careless with the money of others. You are responsible as much as any hacker. You should own up to those whose money you lost and offer to pay the money back over time.
