i don't know why he would put the site back up if he was indeed a runner
He need some time to prepare probably.
Right If it was a scam it had only been up and running for over a year so he had no time at all to plan his exit.
@back on ignore
the main theory was that it would end on BF/CM... So if he had wanted to plan, I could have...
I think the main reason (legit or not) is that running such an operation for more than a year takes a serious toll on anybody and when he got fed up with all this, well that's an exit as any other. Unfortunately that's usually the main exit in crypto (cf mintpal and others).
It might have very well started without any bad intention, but after some time if you want to quit with some money left, that's the way to go...
Hopefully he just having a break until gen2 comes up...
