"[SECURITY ADVISORY] All addresses made with the Android Blockchain.info wallet application since 1 May 2014 are potentially compromised, your funds are at a direct risk of theft." I've answered your 2nd question already: > I don't need to start by installing a blank linux VM on a permanently offline computer, to have a secure bank account.

This is incorrect, posted by some random guy on reddit. Check out the source code he links to, it should be obvious that on any sane platform the random.org generator is used in conjunction with /dev/urandom. > I don't need to start by installing a blank linux VM on a permanently offline computer, to have a secure bank account. I don't even know where to begin here, why would you have to do this with bitcoins? How is storing your bitcoins on your computer any different than using online banking? In both scenarios you risk losing everything if you get hacked.
