Would like to open up a discussion on Responsible Disclosure as it relates to Bitcoin businesses. Is there a leniency in the group to allow unprotected, insecure or downright risky enterprises to continue doing business with no oversight.

1. What is a responsible time-frame to allow a developer to correct issues with a site before public disclosure.

2. Is the wanting BTC to succeed making novices take riskier steps to take part in the market?

3. What solutions are in place, or can be put into place to increase standards on BTC business models.

4. BTC is still the wild west, and anyone with knowledge, a six-shooter and the gumption can harm the entire community.
