The funny part is, that just after we found out about the secret sale and even more strange, right after switching to a new server, he (the new guy) decides to shut bitmit down for good because of personal reasons.
It is exactly the old server, I only restored it. I already was the owner before the last Bitmit auction on Bitmit were published so dont worry but then decided to keep it. The time I took over Bitmit was time before..
To make such a decision based on one forum post would be very unprofessional, that is surely not the reason. I planned this already some time ago and when I am going to "close"->sell Bitmit to somebody who can run it more seriously it would be a benefit for all of us I think.
Selling it on a Bitmit auction is a quite good idea I consider.
