what if the mtgox owner steals the money himself and claims it to be stolen by some unknown hackers? we could not distinguish, which of the two stories did happen, could we?

It would destroy peoples confidence in bitcoins and the market price would plummet so effectively be worthless. Besides, he's is already making a truck load off transaction fees.

and yet the sheeple still continue to pile all their money into one exchange. i swear it is going to be our own stupidity and love for huddling together in one spot that kills this project. hopefully by the time the next decentralized currency comes out people will have evolved enough to realize why one exchange with 90% of the currency is RETARDED!! haha, maybe our collective subconscious knows decentralized currency is for some reason fundamentally unwise and so we are sabotaging ourselves.. cmon people, do whats smart, not necessarily what everyone else is doing. if bitcoin teaches you nothing else, please let it be this - DECENTRALIZE! lol, i don't even know why i try anymore...
