   it would not be secure enough for a service storing bitcoins

Linode was hacked twice (once where Bitcoins were stolen) in recent times and was shown to have the worst security practices I've ever seen. They have never been secure enough for storing Bitcoins.

In fairness, I don't think that is an appreciably worse record for security than most Bitcoin exchanges.

Are you serious??

What you were doing is the equivalent of living your wallet in a public place unattended, and then shouting and screaming it got stolen. You are putting your bitcoin wallet on a public accessible server, you should know the risks of this by now.

Don't leave your wallet in a public place unattended, that includes your bitcoin wallet.

Let me guess, you didn't bother to encrypt your wallet either, didn't you?

Don't blame others for lack of security, if you can't even figure out your own security best practices...

Are you replying to the right person ?

I don't own Bitcoins. And if I did I would never, ever host them on a Linode server.
