You guys don't really belive alan is going to refund the whitelisted investor do you ?
Never and never he will do that.He wants money and not a dead project so he will do anything possible to keep your ETH in his pocket.
Bancor did the exact thing - let anyone who wants get a refund. Only 8% people decided for the refund. Project survived and got credibilty boost. Same will be here. Only couple of bitcointalk panickers will decide to refund, rest will keep their coins because nothing changed for them regarding the tech of the project itself.
