  1. Over $1 million stolen from Bitcoin digital wallet

    Another hack has hit Bitcoin. Over a million dollars have been stolen from a service that offered a digital wallet service for owners of Bitcoin, according to the owner of the site.

    Unfortunately for those who uses Inputs.io, the nature of Bitcoin itself means that its very unlikely they'll ever see their money again. The semi-anonymous currency works off a record of all transactions, but linking identifiers with users can be close to impossible. And there's no such thing as chargebacks in the world of Bitcoin: once a transaction is made it is a done deal. Experts warn users from storing large quantities of Bitcoin online, as hacks are not infrequent.

    LMAO!!!!!

    Since the first time I heard of bitcoins I always had a bad feeling about it, it seemed obscure and not very widespread, like Paypal,
    and although Paypal and Ebay have their bad and good points I am glad I stayed away from bitcoins!!!
    Well if those thefts continue then that spells doom for Bitcoin.
    If they continue ?
    How do you survive after a 1 million dollar loss ?
    After that I would, not walk, but RUN from bitcoins if I was a user!!!!!
