The problem is the wallet was empty.

  But you need more than one wallet. Just like you need more than one house key, in case you lose one.

  That would have been noticed if someone had at least attempted to make hard copies immediately. The second I encrypt a DB (which i've only done once so far, so i'm far from an expert), I get a copy of, verify and duplicate the key, otherwise all backups from that point onward will be useless... The point you add encryption and fuck up the keys is the point you are able to recover and try again, instead of waiting for days, weeks or months like these guys - you check it immediately - if you didn't get a copy of the key or it's invalid, that's ok, your old unencrypted backup isn't out of date yet.
