As the name of it sounds (my)bitcoin - the owners goal was to claim every bitcoin in the world as his hence (my)bitcoin and ended up almost doing it.   Bruce wagner (the owner of it)  would eventually run off with btc booty and go to pataya to spend on booze and little boys it turns out.

It was a webwallet, I used it, it seemed to work just fine, until it suddenly disappeared (I luckily did not have any coins on it when this happened). There may be some old threads lying around detailing the situation, but essentially the guy claimed there was a security breach and somebody had made off with a large portion of the bitcoins. Most people who had bitcoin there never got any back.

it was an online wallet. it ran off with everyones money. those people that used it, including Bruce, were stupid. sorry to say.

And Bruce was the only that got his money back. But it was only 25K BTC at an exchange rate higher than it is today. The act of kindness did show that Tom Williams had a heart, but he quickly came to his senses and kept the rest on deposit. Shortly thereafter, Bruce and Ed went to Pattaya and made a many young boys very, very happy with their infamous three-prong attack.
