Interesting Thread. I just see it as tarnishing the reputations of both services now. Only those who love the thrill of gambling will trust bitcoin 'businesses' now.
Would be nice to get my bitcoins back like everyone else. Pity a good service is now associated with a new service that has yet to prove itself. Proves to me they do not know how to build reputation. Just seems all to shady to me, to come out with this announcement.
Perhaps they are confident that this will be resolved quicky and amicably, and that this will help Neo & Bee build trust from the community. I cant see a new startup getting involved in this unless they were certain they could help.
