Plus its good that mtgox got hacked early on. 60k users is alot but just imagine if we are at the point where it was at 6 million users+? Now everyone is on high alter in terms of internet security which the way it should have been from the beginning but over time people get comfortable and let their guard down.
Also true.
But I really think people dont realize what Bitcoin and this community has achieved. Think about it: Bitcoin is the first alternative currency that some hackers deem valuable enough to try to hack it and even create a virus for it. No other currency had been able to compete with the dollar and "achieve" this. Stop a second and think about it. Its amazing what we have acomplished. There is still a lot to do in front of us, specially creating business in the Bitcoin economy, but if you stop for a moment t think about it its actually unveliable. I would have never imagine that Bitcoin would be where it is now a year ago.
