The lesson to be learned: Never keep anything more in an online wallet then you can afford to lose.

wow I wonder how much he paid for instawallet.org? and he made 30,000,000. talk about a good investment! I wish everyone could be notified that has a instawallet before everyone gets robbed.
He's made nothing. $30,000,000 is the rough value of the coins currently deposited in instawallets, but that has nothing to do with how much profit he has made.Unless he's implying that's what he would make if he runs.
Will somebody please put my mind to ease on this. IW is my wallet of choice, and you guys are starting to scare me.

I have no reason to keep warning people I already consider my coins gone.. lol and yes im implying he is going to run with all the cash. he does in fact own all the coins stored at instawallet!
I feel much better now. For a while there I thought I owned my coins. That takes a lot of pressure off of me.

I have gotten several pms from people saying they had the same thing happen. apparently the day the ownership changed is the day my cash got hacked. this is a big scam and obviously several people have been employed to cover it up. well have fun with that im sure what you deserve will come around eventually. seriously the same day ownership changes and a Russian hacker robs me!? I call bullshit. but seriously good job your like Hitler huge accomplishments but really fucked up
Those are some serious allegations. You better put some more info here along with them.
just wait till all the coins vanish as mine have! that info will be so solid you can eat it.. and trust me it does not leave a good taste in your mouth

Of course, now that I've said that, he'd be able to pull a stunt like that and no one would suspect him. 
Exactly - not difficult to find an IP in Russia and log in from there.. When the incentive is high enough, even law abiding citizens may become thieves. But this is just a general comment, not directed at anyone in particular.
There was a guy yesterday who claimed that he invested 40K USD in bitcoin, and then the fork happened, and he was sweating all over because his wife didn't know.. Same guy ?
Online wallets are only for amounts you can afford to lose.

If you at least looked at the date the thread was started you wouldn't even ask...
So if instawallet has access your coin isn't this just a matter of time till they are hacked, or "hacked" and they all run off with the coins.
davout is about the last person on this board I'd suspect to pull a stunt like that.

Just like Pirate...
Pirate wasn't a Django Reinhardt fan, was he?
I mean, we wouldn't have been screaming our heads off for weeks on how pirate was going to scam people exactly as he did weeks later, if he was a Django Reinhardt fan.

Did something happen?
On Instawallet's site, whatever webpage you try to go to, it gives a "We're sorry, but something went wrong." message.
WTF?

Up to this thread, I wasn't concern, but you made me look. It's up, and all my coins are still there. Damn, I don't want have seconds thought about IW, for I believe them to be up-and-up.
I sure the hell would hate to come here in the future joining some choir, then being told that I shouldn't have had all my coins in one place as I've read 100's of times on this forum, but to date have ignored said advice.

Critical: Current Bitcoin network fork. Action needed by mining pools. Merchants should hold transactions.
Valid reason ?
But apparently our bitcoind version is not affected. Should be back to normal in minutes.
LOLk
I guess I didn't see that
I posted before that alert went up.What's with the alert, anyway?
Instawallet's back up, so yeah
At the exact moment I was about to go to bed I check my mailbox and I have this e-mail from a Bitcoin-Central user that I know, basically says "SHUT YOUR BITCOIND NAOOO".
Which I did. There was a chain fork due to a bug in 0.7 that was triggered by 0.8. The choice was made to have chains converge on the 0.7 version.
Since instawallet runs a patched client that is 0.6 it isn't affected and will work fine as soon as the chains converge, until then transaction confirmations will slow down.
