And while I'm on the subject ... sometime in the next few months, the wallet of some major site will be hacked and a bunch of people are going to lose all of their bitcoins. You heard it here first.
Sounds like complete FUD to me.
It is not FUD. It is reality. I am stating the obvious. People that allow others to hold their bitcoins for them are generally newbies that are simply unaware of the risk.
It literally is FUD. You're basing this and the timeframe on absolutly nothing.
Sorry. I can't resist.
Told you so!Lucky guess.
Not really.
Since about 2010 or so a major site has been hacked and a bunch of people lose all their bitcoins every few months.
It doesn't take a lot of luck to predict that what happened consistently for the last three years is going to keep happening absence some fundamental change in the way these sites are operated.
I mean that is was lucky that he called it so close, not that he called it at all. It's easy to make predictions if you don't have a time frame. He did. That's the part that was lucky.
The point was not that I can correctly predict the future.
Anyone could have Everyone should have made that same prediction.
The point was that everyone should understand that storing their bitcoins in someone else's wallet is a big risk.
