For arguments sake, let's assume Mt. Gox was an inside job.

I don't see what's preventing Blockchain.info from performing the same inside job.

Their trustworthiness may make it unlikely they will, but that doesn't preclude the possibility.

I want a mechanism to preclude the possibility or at least reduce the effect on individuals that lose coins, and protect all coins value by extension.

Fiat currency has such mechanisms; FDIC in the U.S. and CDIC in Canada.

Am I missing something?

I'm not trying to arrogantly argue, I WANT coins to work but this issue seriously undermines them.
