Who's going to be the first victims if ECC will be broken? Owners of coins that sit on reused addresses - the attacker will have plenty of time to calculate private keys. Next will be miners who still use pay-to-pubkey coinbase transaction script. Then it'll be senders of big sums in single transaction. For everyone else I think the risk of bitcoin stealing is minimal.
