I just don't think it would have made much sense to drop the facade now if he was scammer after putting so much effort on all his services, no matter how deeply flawed was their security from the get-go, and trying to build a reputation when he could have done it far earlier, probably get away with more money and when BTC wasn't at an all-time high so people would eventually forget about it.
In that TF is an anon, the choices are:
a) Become new anon (or more to another of several profiles)

People are so stupid, he's got every chance of milking this for a
double-dip mega rip!
- security issues have been patched
- here's partial refund 'out of my own pocket into new SUPER io.IN"
- No competing online wallet host will dare call attention to the obvious problem lest they expose the elephant in the room
- Coinbase will most assuredly give careful consideration to all angles and publish a article of little to nil journalistic merit but with just a hint of objectivity to disguise a paid-for promo-campaign
- guaranteed that some people portion of people will be both stupid and lazy and end up transferring moar in. In a way, I guess this is just standard economic Darwinism,
now just accelerated to bitcoin protocol speeds.
