I hate myself for being so lazy not even trying to pick 10 free BTC.
It's just some bash kungfu and gpg magic.
In theory. I know what to do. I'm just lazy to google the syntax.

I hate myslef...

If you are not looking for HW on ebay and for the cheapest possible reseller of server housing services, then the price seems to be ok. Smiley

Hope this episode will serve as a lesson to improve the services...
In fact, the same mistakes will be done over and over again. And history will repeat.
Am I too pessimistic?  Smiley

TangibleCryptography, AFAIK, there is actually an existing feature in bitcoin network allowing you to send transaction with the ability to change it later. It's currently not implemented in any client, but it could be used to review and correct one's recent transactions.

There is no way for an admin or anyone else in the entire world other than someone who knows the current password to change the password.
If you kept your password a secret,  then no one else in the entire world has access to the funds in your blockchain wallet.

How can anyone trust you after this?

You can check the source code of blockchain.info and see yourself. If the code isn't modified by purpose, owners of the site are not able to see your password.

I hope that action above was covered in your terms of use and privacy policy.
There was a discussion between some of my friends recently about releasing personal information by e-shop owner and most of them disagree with this kind of "revenge".
It may bring negative attention.

I actually get his arguments from the specific point of view of new user. He tried that bitcoin thing, and he lost control over his money, which is complete opposite of what was advertised.
Conclusion -> Man, don't even try that bitcoin thing.

I'm afraid that we need to get used to this kind of arguments, because most of the people simply don't get it and never will. They doesn't care about things like ecliptic curve crypto, proof of work and P2P. They just want quick and comfortable way of moving money. If that means selling their souls to PayPal or Western Union, they will do that (and gladly pay the fee!) instead of loosing money on foreign currency exchange.

Shotgun_WooWoo: Someone might as well capture your paypal login and internet banking login the same way. If you are accessing any sensitive information from that PC I recommend you to change password for those services as well. When it comes to wallet security, there is hardware wallet developed by Slush at the moment. Until it's finished, you have to take care of security yourself. Also remember that deepbit is 3rd party service and has nothing to do with bitcoin network as well. Also, most of the bitcoin related viruses were installed by users voluntarily by users in the past.

Sure, Mt.Gox sucks when it comes to moving large sums of money, but these issues are not related to bitcoins. It's all about traditional banking laws and regulations.
It also sucks that we don't have something like www.bitcoinstore.com in Europe yet. Otherwise people like you could spend the bitcoins directly.

Some dude contacted me today:

Are you interested in Bitcoin support for Desura?
Reply Delete last message from flosslibreculture around 3hours 35mins ago
I noticed you like Bitcoin to be accepted on Desura so I made a friend request.

He's part of Desurium group, but I'm not sure if he's a developer or just fan.

I also read in another thread that MemoryDealers has some issues with Intersango too. I'm putting down Intersango from my web. I don't want to be Bruce Wagner II for recommending broken service.
I will miss you Sad

Phantomcircuit, is there anyone else besides you actively maintaining the exchange in operational state?
Everytime something like this happens, I start to thinking about stop recommending Intersango to newbs. Then you come on IRC or forum and solve some of the issues, so I can see someone from Intersango is actually still alive. I personaly bought BTC for all my remaining € balance and moved them to my local wallet some time ago.
