Hey, I've been following bitcoin recently trying to get my head around it. I created an account on MtGox the exchange but never used it. I own 0 bitcoins :) However I found out this evening that MtGox has been hacked and this crashed the bitcoin market. Gmail soon alerted me to suspicious activity on my account. I don't use the same passwords so my account was fine but I guess someone managed to brute force the encrypted passwords on MtGox and tried logging in to my Gmail from a suspicious IP address. The video below is kind of fascinating to see the speed at which this all happened.
