MtGox lost BTC600k.  As a fraction of the primary money supply, that loss was comparable to a USD loss of about $35 billion (M0=$1.2 trillion).  So even <i>before</i> most of the Bangladesh money was recovered it was only 1&#x2F;30th the size of the MtGox loss.  And MtGox wasn&#x27;t even a theft, it was simple mismanagement.  Imagine the attacks people would start to mount if they could net the equivalent of $35 billion (or more) risk-free.
