That "fella" had at least 3 million XEM. What you suggest is no different than saying bail out for bankers, rich and elites. Good riddance to him. We should be focusing more on the ordinary man, not the new bankers of crypto.
At this stage of the game it's still microscopic and it needs to be supported. There's no more than a few thousand people involved and anyone getting wiped out costs NEM an ally.
3 million coins doesn't make anyone a psychopathic bankster. It was a few grand. And it would've eventually been spread far and wide. Someone with that much skin in the game is going to work a little harder than some guy on Poloniex with 500 XEM on his balance.
