He already owns them, it makes no difference if he pays himself or not.
Yes, you are correct, if the share sold in this IPO
are not sold by SatoshiDICE, but by sole owner evoorhees.
In this case, no money is going to SD at all.
For some reason, I was under the impression, that the IPO (initial public offering) is organised by SD.
Lets not confuse the company and the owner of the company. Those are considered 2 separate entities.
