Well, you certainly did not do anything wrong! It is important, if you are going to trust someone, that they should be trustworthy.
There is no reason, necessarily, that you cannot,if you want, renew your friendship with this person. If a discussion of what went down occurred, and your friend gave satisfactory responses (ie, apologized, or acknowledged that they did wrong, and/or said it would not happen again), if might be worth a reconciliation.
But, you said this was not the first time. So, it might be that a clean break is the best thing. It's really a matter, IMHO, of weighing the pros and cons, and reflecting about what you want. For example, you might be able to have a friendship that includes discussing tech issues but does not include trusting him or her with money.
There's no right or wrong, and you didn't do anything that seems way harsh or something. But, it sounds like you might want to continue some type of relationship with this person.
Good luck.
