As with the website, that paper discusses only the speed of BCrypt. There is no cryptanalysis at all, and no indication that BCrypt was submitted anywhere for peer review of its cryptographic soundness.

This doesn't mean BCrypt is unsound. It does mean that I would want to see such analysis before using it.
