Junkie fucks, I have no sympathy, they ruin Bitcoins image even if it is undeserved attention.

So just because somebody wants to put a substance in their body that the nanny government says is illegal, they deserve to have their money taken?

Let's hope the SR 2 folks turn themselves in to the authorities before their customers find them.

The wrath of a horde of potheads, terrifying.

What they gonna do, blow smoke on them and call them names? Pull a bong over their heads?

Nah, but I'm sure a few coke/meth dealers that lost a good bit would have no problem putting a cap in them.

Oh yeah, let's use malleability problem we never heard of before to steal your coins

We might hear few of these more.

basically, this. to people who really think that was "bitcoin problem", learn to think.

step1: site operator moves all of the funds to the hot server for no reason
step2: site operator knows that most exchanges closed withdrawals due to mutated tx problem but does not give a crap
step3: site operator does not check account balances and does, hundreds of times, credit one user with a "failed" transaction
step4: site operator does not have any insight into the balance of the hot wallet where they put all funds, so they don't see it painfully slowly being emptied

either all of the above, or,
step1: site op wants to steal 3 mil but does not have an excuse to, finds one, proceeds.

Hmm which one is more realistic, let me think...

Bitcoin seems to be mainly used for criminal activities, black markets or to support terrorism and money laundering the other part is for gambling and speculation.
Kinda sad for a grassroots currency , that was made to save the masses.

That's bullshit. It's only small % of the transactions.

I just read over 88,000 coins were stolen. I had no idea those darknet sites were so popular. How long has it been since silk road 1 was shut down? Seems just a few months. Amazing that a darknet tor site would amass such holdings in such a short period of time, and then not secure it.

What makes you think that is the address?  Did SR2 identify it?

Dunno, smells of BS to me.

Nobody, I worked for them like the rest of us.  People get killed over relatively small amounts of drugs/money all the time, what makes you think somebody wouldn't do it to somebody that took millions?
