And what if the stability which you so crave was explicitly caused by pirate for months on end?
Even if true.
"The announcement occurred when the ability to send wire transfers to Mt. Gox had ended on Friday. Perfect timing for maximum damage over the weekend."
Either Pirate is the worlds largest largest idiot and so badly blundered the announcement in such a way that 35% of the purchasing power of his investors funds was annihilated before he even began repayment .... or it was intentional.
Oh and idiots tend not to acquire a sum of 500K BTC.
