You're a little late asking this since Gox. Most of the people that lost a lot are gone. But due to security issues I lost about 200 BTC.
200 BTC is quite a fair sum. What security issues caused the loss?

Mostly key management, but I'm at a loss for much of it. I brought these issues to the attention of the devs and they added safeguards for future loss prevention. That's why I'm still helping fight FUD and not divested.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Was this with BTC or another currency out of curiosity?

I lost 10+ Btc in COIN2 but no worries because that loss never make me hard feelings, I got 30+ btc from same coin and lost 10 at the last moment when it crashed again and again.

I never fiddled much with anything other than Bitcoin. I lost a bunch because I started a brainwallet type trivia game and imported one of the private keys into a hotwallet. Another was an issue with how I used BIP38. Others were related to backups and possibly a stolen laptop. What I have left is hopefully well secured.

Loss is such a tought teacher. I've started being paranoid since the day I risked to lose 1000DRK for security issues.

Because ultimately I made more money than I lost, I wouldn't touch this market at the moment though. I like my capital too much.

So you did not lose 10 BTC in COIN2. You made 20 BTC from it.  Cheesy

Sharecoin, it's totally a scam.

I still have $150 worth of sharecoins that are now worthless. I should have dumped them when I had the chance.
