'On March 2nd 2014 Flexcoin was attacked and robbed of all coins in the hot wallet. The attacker made off with 896 BTC, dividing them into these two addresses: 1NDkevapt4SWYFEmquCDBSf7DLMTNVggdu [and] 1QFcC5JitGwpFKqRDd9QNH3eGN56dCNgy6. As Flexcoin does not have the resources, assets, or otherwise to come back from this loss, we are closing our doors immediately.'"

Uhh, the bitcoin framework wasn't attacked here. A single site that was holding bitcoins was hacked. That would be like saying that using gold as money is a flawed concept because someone held up a train and stole some gold bars. Or that using dollars as money is a flawed concept because someone broke into an ATM machine.

exactly. novelty bullshit in limited supply is going to be a huge target for crime. fiat currencies are the best ones because they're infinite and honest about the factor of trust being the value.
