I just wanted to get a little bit of a better idea of your reference in the earlier post. So thanks for that.
I don't really know the details of what you describe, so I don't have any independent reference or judgement, but sure just going from your description those kinds of losses could reasonably be considered as monumental fuckups or some similar level of characterization.
I have made plenty of monumental fuck ups in the past, the difference is they have been using my own BTC/£/$... one thing that og seems to have a knack of doing is the same but with others funds..
its why I cannot understand the treasurer role.. and DT... default trust for someone who couldn't honor a simple loan agreement?
Surely, as far as I understand, Theymos is the owner of the forum, so he has full and complete discretion regarding how to set up the Trust system and who to place as DT1s. Sure, there could be some ways that Theymos could change the DT system around or tweak it, but to a certain extent there is likely some locking in of systems that cannot be transitioned in and out at the drop of a hat.
I agree that when you are dealing with holding the money of other people, then there are greater responsibilities than dealing with your own, and surely we are more free to take greater risks with our own money than we are with the money of others.
I doubt that Theymos would leave OG with that much forum funds if he thought that OG was not aware or capable of carrying out reasonable and appropriate fiduciary responsibilities or if he thought that there may be a more prudent way to spread out the risk or to lessen some possible single points of failures, if that is actually an issue, like you assert.
