There is probably a potential lawsuit against mybitcoin.com for negligence.

Numerous users have complained about the theft of bitcoins from mybitcoin.com

If they were aware of the potential security breach and did not take adequate measure to protect their members they could be liable.

They would be held to a reasonable standard.

It seems Tradehill and Mt. Gox halted trading until passwords were reset to protect their members accounts.

That is the standard they should be held to.

I am not clear if mybitcoin went that far.

They have this message on their site:

IMPORTANT NOTICE - PLEASE READ!


MTGOX was recently hacked. Their password list was stolen and leaked to the internet. If you have a MTGOX account and the password is the same as your MyBitcoin account you MUST change your password immediately or risk having your account compromised. You have been warned.

If that is all they did it would not be sufficient compared to what reasonable competitors did, and was not sufficient as many users lost their coins.

6990's are now available.

"Limit 10 per customer".  Do you think mining had anything to do with that?

Hi,
  I read an article that pointed out several current shortcomings for Bitcoin that need to be overcome:

    Why can’t I combine two wallets easily?
    …or partition the one I have?
    Why can’t I subscribe to a service, which may change its pricing enroute (think electricity bill), with just one confirmation action?
    …or create a service that others can subscribe to?
    …and bill them for one-click confirmations?
    Why can’t I add more bitcoins with a single button in the client and a credit card number?
    Why can’t I create a shared wallet for a workgroup with individual spending limits?
    Why can’t I write server-side code for my WordPress blog that accepts bitcoin?
    Why can’t I pay with my phone without risking loss of my money through theft or loss of my phone?
    Why can’t I easily integrate bitcoin acceptance into my commerce website?
    Why can’t I write server-side code in my organization management program that accepts and sends bitcoin?

I am not sure if the author is accurate but I thought it would interest the community to see his perspective.
