You need to remember a lot of coins would have been tied up in escrow when the Feds seized the site so not possible to keep off site. Skepticism is entirely justified and a healthy dose of paranoia keeps us all on our toes. What I can tell you though is I am reliably informed that the new site will have security protocols and measures in place that will prevent a repeat of what happened with the old site. I would like to qualify that statement by saying I do not expect anyone to just take me at my word on this matter either and I am sure DPR will be able to provide the appropriate reassurances when the time is right in a way that does not compromise the operation. With regards to buyers who are concerned regarding this issue I would advocate not keeping your coins in your silk road account wallet and simply transfer them at the time you are ready to place an order.
