I was in dev channel. I can confirm MaNI was not new and he has been with PND for awhile and that he was wallet dev for PND.
He is still working for the others, by the way he played the story.
Keep any of the originals and the same pattern will develop, since they have to be on the inside to schedule the pump and dumps to their advantage.
What? Who is still working for the others? MaNI? Nope he is going to another coin.
