He's not going to apologise and this is probably secretly what he wanted. Just look at what little it took for his words to have a drastic impact on bitcoins price. If it can fall by $100 or whatever just by someone saying its doomed (which was fud) then it makes me a little concerned for the future of btc What happens if a few prominent people say its dead? Are we going to see a fall by hundreds of dollars based on that? Someone saying something bad about bitcoin shouldn't have such an effect.
