Storing private keys in Evernote on an online computer during livestream? I can hardly believe this thing for a person of such crypto fame magnitude, but ok, what do I know, right. But if it is true, then poor guy, I suppose. He really should have learned a lesson now about storing such huge amounts of crypto more securely. But again, it can happen to all of us, so I will not jinx it. Smiley

This part is very funny:

He does use paper wallets, but as he acknowledges, he was foolish to use Evernote as a backup of his private keys.

I mean, who uses Evernote for something that sensitive? Even more astonishing is the fact that he was answering questions about security during the hack. If indeed all this is true.
LMAO right? Especially if you're holding an insane amnt of funds and keep your info in a centralized platform. Lesson learned for Ian

Ian Balina went live with an AMA on April 24th. As one can assume, he received numerous questions about the loss of his crypto in a recent hack. I'm sure you're asking what we learned about the hack from the AMA. You can read about it here!
