Hackers Have Stolen Millions of Dollars in Bitcoin Using Only Phone Numbers
This is of course why bitcoin is a bad choice for most people, except for beer money amounts. Despite a lot of security precautions from a savvy user, someone made off with this stash.<p>Shame he didn't keep them in an exchange. Oh wait...<p>I always thought had I got in early in bitcoin I'd plan to sell off in tranches at $1, $10, $100 value etc. Then at least when the coins get stolen or worthless I'd have something to show for it.<p>My prediction: Bitcoin will become worthless in the long term once the crypto is cracked by mathematics, a backdoor or quantum computing
