Too early to tell, but either way the lesson will be "trust no one to hold your coins".

If this is in any way connected to the vulnerability which was publicly discussed last week then Instawallet needs to explain why they didn't take the service offline until that vulnerability was fixed. The password clue for their own wallet was made public, for fuck's sake. .

Source?

Sorry about that, it was StrongCoin's wallet hint which was made public. There were discussions elsewhere last week regarding vulnerabilities of a number of wallet services. The Instawallet vulnerability did display the user's wallet hint, though.
