Sounds like that article is attacking Bitcoin's anonymity. And it's not spelt BitCoin.

Quote from: Nathaniel Mott
A number of Bitcoin owners had their ‘coins stolen by “pirateat40” (who will henceforth be known as “Bitbeard,” my own name for him as his official moniker is a bit of a mouthful)

Nathaniel Mott is a bit of a mouthful mind if we call you Twat?

I refuse to give a click to yellow page trash articles like this.

My personality type: INTJ - please forgive my weaknesses (Not naturally in tune with others feelings; may be insensitive at times, tend to respond to conflict with logic and reason, tend to believe I'm always right)

Be happy.  We need more Nathaniel Motts.  They will be the guys who 5 years from now will be buying our coins at $1000.

Yeah, in a few years there will be billion dollar frauds. That's when we'll know that Bitcoin is a legit currency.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.
