so i run
www.proxycoins.comit's a P2P platform for buying things for others with your credit card and they repay you with Bitcoin.
i was hacked. just like so many other (and much better) systems. not awful, all in all about 1BTC damage (more luck than brains).
super annoying and depressing though, when you're building something new that's supposed to help the community
since there was a deal going on thru the platform, and a user already put the BTC in escrow, i told him i'm shipping his product anyhow - not his fault i got hacked right?
so this user, a price among man, offered to split my loss in the middle. effectively paying 150% on the product, sharing my loss just to support the system
really worms my heart. especially in contrast of the mother***ers who hacked and stole
thank you u great community you!

if I would be you, my main concern would be to run a full-scale investigation and plug all security holes to make sure the hack doesn't succeed again - instead of spreading the "success story" online
while it takes courage to openly admit that your site was hacked, it also hurts your public image and is bad for your business
