  I'm surprised to see he posts private logs in public.

  I don't get the significance of the logins. The hacker logs in every 15 minutes. What are the chances someone who makes a trade with him logs in a few minutes after one of his logins?? I'd say the odds are pretty high... and that log doesn't mean anything.

    And I bet there are hundres of other users loging in at that time as well.

  So the person who was lucky enough to actually place that order first was a person who had the luck to have just logged in and be actively browsing the site? It doesn't surprise me that someone who is on the site would notice an ongoing crash faster than people who were doing something else. It further doesn't surprise me that someone who is already involved with the site would find it easier to get through an overloaded system than others - for one thing they don't need to go through the login process. I'm not saying that Kevin wasn't associated with the break-in. I'm just saying that the evidence provided is not very good evidence of anything other than that Kevin was at the right place at the right time. Given that the site is actively used, there will always be people in that boat, and they will have an advantage over people who aren't.

  After Kevin's detailed and eloquent explanation of events, the best they can do is show that he was logged in at the same time as the hacker, or whoever it was?
