yeah that hurts but it's not the end of the world, just a little lesson, just be glad you got it out of the way now with such a small sum. Imagine if you would have had say 20k lost.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

If your password is strong then this means your computer is most likely compromised,what type of anti-virus are you using? it's true that bitcoin is irreversible and this is why paper wallet offline are recommended for money you don't intend to spend immediately.

Does that mean I should keep everything on my Android phone? Because it's linux, you know that right? And there's noooo viruses on Android, right??
