Yes i got this email, I apologize aswell
Hi,
In my email yesterdsy I told you our BITSTAMP account has
been hacked and 1.8 BTC has been stolen.
This money belonged to SBIF, the SurfScientist Bitcoin Investment Fund.
We have another fund, held at Coinbase, that contains the money
for the Shared profit Plan (the weekly payouts). These funds are
unaffected and the Shared Profit Plan operates as before.
It's a bad enough thing to lose one's own money, but is far more terrible
to lose funds trusted to you by someone else. I will not expose myself
to such experience again. Therefore, the Investment Fund will be re-openend
but with some important changes :
1) it is not possible to directly deposit BTC into the Fund anymore. The only
way to put funds in there is by setting the 'PayoutToFund" flag in your
memberprofile to "Yes". This will deposit your weekly payouts from the
Shared profit Plan into the fund.
2) you will still earn 0.25% daily over your SBIF balance.
3) You can withdraw your SBIF balance when it reaches the 0.001 btc minimum payout level.
4) When you SBIF Balance grows to > 0.01 BTC it will be automatically paid out.
These rules ensure the fund will not grow to a size I cannot recover in
case of disaster.
There's been a big explosion in the lab - but we're still alive and kicking!
