Yes they were salted, no that's not gonna protect you if using a ridiculous insecure "pa$$w0rd". I fail to see how a hacker with access to the DB could have created the price bubble.

Yes you solved the mystery, the only reason btc went up or is valued anything is because of this sundays trading gone wrong.

No seriously these conspiracies are turning out to be more spastic than usefull by the minute.

Let's start by this topic:

http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=18858.0

Then this:

then we've this:

Password are encrypted one way (+salt). Someone cannot be selling "user + pass" unless he has some way to revert this.
Here's a lie of M'Tux, the pwds aren't salted as we now know.

by 14th someone was already attacking:

06/14/11 15:45   Withdraw BTC   17RT6Ne994VjC762wh7TpXRdrZRMbhJSUC    -20.19   0   0.009   0.059

Strangely M'Tux refers "two months ago", "two months ago" was exactly when BTC started to spike there. This may mean the value of BTC went up not by real trade but because the hacker by finding USD on someone's wallet he would need to convert them to BTC in order to cash out.

The whole story stinks a bit...  Angry
