just say delay as delay. you don't have to make excuses like audit this audit there, approval this approval there, trip and whatsoever.
just admit that you don't even have enough btc to pay shareholders because your ponzi game has come to an end.
no one buy at current price, not even buying back from current shareholder.
I have been through audits of major financial institutions that did not take as long as this audit of a relatively small company. I'd like to know who this auditor is that would spend so much time and money on an audit of this nature - and who is paying them?
