Absolutely not. Only a small (but significant) portion contained in one operating wallet is lost.

18k coins is roughly what they got from fees in 2014. If they sold coins for $ regularly, they made around 9M$.

Pantera Capital invested $10m in Bitstamp during 2013, which could cover double their $5m loss.

I seriously doubt that capital has been sitting in a bank account ever since patiently waiting for them to fuck up.

Plus it gives the VC investors sufficient cause to sue them for negligent business practices.
