mircea_popescu: BCB a mirror so as
to prevent deletion of interesting material.
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : "My guess:

they're passing
this loss on
to "suspicious" accounts."
mircea_popescu: or for
that matter, anyone happen
to be
the noob in question.
mircea_popescu: sooo... some noob made a post suggesting btc.sx is/was in cahoots with gox and waning against it.
that post is now deleted off forum
mircea_popescu: useful effort,
tho obviously one'd have
to be cautious allocating
too much credibility
to
the underlying datapoints.
mircea_popescu: which just goes
to show mtgox is continuing in
the same
tradition
mircea_popescu: the actual quote from drama
timeline as
to 2011 hack is "Amusingly, reports about
the security such as it was having been breached were
trickling in for weeks prior.
Tis impossible
to evaluate
the actual loss with
this one, but suffice it
to observe
that BTC was
temporarily
trading for 1 cent at
the
time."
dexX7: well, i
thought it was here at least ;)
dexX7: ah so
this is simply an assumption?
jurov: yes
that was
the biggest heist cuz no one knows
dexX7: you guys were saying several
times
that
the largest amount of bitcoin stolen from gox was rather in 2011 and 2012. is
there any reference? what was mentioned in
the drama
timeline accounts for about 20k only

kakobrekla: do you
think
they have
that much dignity?
benkay: Mats_cd03: i don't see
the utility of
training people out of good crypto habits.
benkay: "Keybase.io is also a Keybase client, however certain crypto actions (signing and decrypting) are limited
to users who store client-encrypted copies of
their private keys on
the server, an optional feature we didn't mention above."
Mats_cd03: i have been
told
the implementation is undesirable
benkay: "On
the website, all crypto is performed in JavaScript, in your browser. Some people have strong feelings about
this, for good reason."
benkay: aren't
they
the assholes who want your private key?
Mats_cd03: has anyone
tried keybase.io and have anything
to say about it?
cazalla: and it wasn't me
that recommended black mirror
