I took it as the silk road 2 owner seen what was going on with exchanges and TM issue with the bit coin source then thought "Hmm if I claim I got hacked because of the TM issue" then I can steal people's coins and get away with it easily.

VOILA.

Of course. I mean, given how often this happens- its hard to understand why someone would deposit funds on these things.

So is the jury out wether this was a hack or inside job yet?

bitcoin is like the homosexual to currency (don't get my wrong 1000 BTC is good, but peercoin is the way to go long term)

What the hell does that mean?

I think, attempting to translate the poster's original comments, that it means "I am really dumb."

I could be wrong, though.

Silk road wasnt hacked. The owners took off with the coins, were duly exposed and now the forum is awash with thread after thread of distraught memmbers who are understandably after his blood. admin and mods tried to blame transaction malleability and alleged the entire funds had been stolen under their noses.

you know, I really hate it when people come on here and start threads without checking the facts first.

Well this is the explanation they gave and how it was reported. Only time will tell what truly happened.

It'd be nice if a mod would change this stupid subject line, which is a complete lie. SR2 was not hacked. You morons just got your money stolen, which was entirely predictable, you stupid dope fiends.

I won't believe that one guy was able to hack silk road 2.0 ! Maybe he had help.
Many states don't like bitcoins, so i can imagine that he got "governmental help" to destroy reputation of Bitcoin in the world

Think they just saw it as a way to easily blame a hack because the coins they had was a nice chunk of change and running with it now means less likely to get caught. At end of the day the guy who ran it for years that never stole any coins ended up in a cell & his 100k BTC aren't much use there.

I can't see how this would of happened any other way than the admins taking the funds. Why would it of been setup with an automated system to check stuck transactions rather than have a human look at it. They also claim they knew about exchanges having issues & knew what the issue was so surely if they had an automated system that can re-send funds when it thinks the transaction didn't go through surely he would of shut it down or turned it off.

I'm sure most people in his position would take the money & run.

Except, they did get caught. dpr2 and defcon has run off with members' coins, are being slammed around their own forum, no wait, Ross's forum -- and they are pissed. Guess the lesson is don't deal with a darknet, especially one with a bad track record. As for all these idiots pretending to know what they are talking about based on number of posts, it's getting really boring. Maybe hit the gym a bit.

Well thanks to this and sheep I'm sure no one will trust a market place where admins have access to all the coins

3 Signatures on a transaction vendor / buyer / escrow and 2 signatures needed to release funds is the only way to go now & if site gets taken down no coins will be lost and vendor can still get the money.

Wow, a member for less than a month, and already complaining about people not checking facts!! Roll Eyes

Lol. Er, yeah, I have been a member of bitcoin forum for less than a month and that means I'm automatically wrong about something I post does it? Maybe you should check your own facts before you write or people might start thinking you're a complete idiot. Wink

Malleability? Hahahaha, the fucking admins stole all of it. What kind of idiot would put money into that website is beyond me.

Why would the already wealthy admins of a darknet site steal a measly 4000 BTC when running the site with its reputation intact would net you 1000+BTC per week?

You don't know how wealthy they are. Fuck, SR 2 has only been up for a short period of time. If 4000 BTC meant nothing to them they would have eaten the loss and not said a fucking word about it as to keep trust in the site.

Also, where the fuck do you get off thinking they make 1000+ BTC a week?

And who said they were not? SR 1.0 made 125k BTC in a year.

Yes, and 90% of SR1's life Bitcoin was worth less than $15, and 50%+ Bitcoin was worth less that 5$ each. That would definitely make it easy to rack up a large number of coin in a year, eh??

Just for reference, 75%+ of SR2's life Bitcoin has been worth more than $600/coin. See the difference??
