If anything, today's events should be a wake up call to the BTC community. Time for us to grow up.
By that, I mean things like the major charting site (bitcoin charts) having such vague error message. Similarly, the major exchange (Mt. Gox) having relatively weak password encryption strength.
If bitcoins are to move beyond the legitimacy of say, WoW Gold, I think things like this need to change. Otherwise, bitcoins will remain little more than a novelty ... and like the Rubik's cube ... eventually fade into history. Personally, I'd like to NOT see that happen.
I'm by no means a conformist or rule-follower. But you gotta put on your best suit and do your homework if you're going to be taken seriously at a job interview. That's where bitcoins are now, imho, at the interview stage.
Good luck to us all.

You are so right. Unfortunately there are so many "coach = bitcoin forum potatoes", sitting in front of the PC and complaining about everything. What they (and all of us) should rather do it actively participating to bring the bitcoin economy forward.
