Exactly, I don't see how this is useful for bitcoin users at all. They notify me after all my bitcoins have been stolen? Great.

I can see this being useful as a canary to let you know someone has acquired unfettered access to your device, but it doesn't seem very practical for high value targets (who cares about $5 of bitcoin if there's far more valuable info to steal), or if the attacker decides to steal the bitcoin wallet file and only transfer coins a few weeks later after he's already taken advantage of the other info he got off the target device (and by then you probably already know you've been compromised anyway).

unlock the $5 every login. it will be stolen much faster than the wallet that you load only a few times (not to buy drugs, just to count your bit coins, or maybe take a dive on all those bits in your huge storage fort)
