It's still going on.  ANY sort of news good or bad should be shared with the community. It would seem smart if the news came out on all platforms at the same time (tweet, bitcointalk,discord and so on)

Where is a formal statement to where is the 10btc going. If only a few know about it then it leads me to belive that there is a pump and dump scene on the way.

I AM NOT SAYING THERE WILL BE, but the lack of info is sad.
