Evolution Marketplace goes down in massive Bitcoin heist

Another multi-million dollar Bitcoin heist could be the nail in the coffin for the troubled cryptocurrency.

end of bitcoin

Yeah, obviously they don't know what they're talking about by claiming the 'end of bitcoin'. It's not really a heist either but an inside job which is piss easy to commit by the operators of these sorts of markets as you're trusting anonymous people on a shady site 100% with your funds. This is why we need to move away from them and to decentralized markets as there's nothing to worry about then. They can't come soon enough in my opinion and may legitimize or at least give people more confidence to use them then.
