I changed some Bitcoin to Ethereum but I don't know if it was a smart idea.

Bought some NXT in 2014.

Depends on future development, hope Waves will rule 2018.

I don't think this will change anything concerning strategy. This way just represents the current Waves strategy.

On the long run this might be a very good coin.

Some guys thought it's a good idea to use an online service to generate their passwords.

Obviously you didn't get the irony of his post.

I guess it's not based on anything, just a random number that sounds good.

Adding a seed generator to the client some months ago when the problem became clear would have prevented this issue.

I see you won't get it.

LOL it's saved in a wallet.dat file but that makes no difference.

I'm trying to explain it one last time. You also need your Bitcoin private keys every time you use your Bitcoin wallet. The Bitcoin wallet could easily send those private keys to anyone.

This happened 2 or 3 days ago. Short: They didn't fix it and now it exploded.

Your Bitcoin private key stays private when your Bitcoin client doesn't send it to someone else. The same applies to IOTA.

When you use the Bitcoin Core client for example, you have a wallet.dat file where your private keys are saved. You need this file to access your Bitcoins and by this, you expose your private keys to your Bitcoin wallet the same way that you enter a pass phrase to login to your IOTA account.

Then stop exposing your private keys to your Bitcoin wallet.

Looks like they just ignored the users who told them to add a seed generator to the client. This would have easily prevented this situation.

Although it's still stupid to use an online service that generates your passwords.

They warn the users AFTER their balances have been stolen.

Really? How you know it was that much? This would be 20% of IOTA market cap.

Creating a Waves token is really easy, it's just one click and it costs 1 Wave.

This is one of the slowest videos I've ever seen, but besides that a great video.
