Dean, how about you directly address this?


I think his strategy is to just argue semantics and nonsense to the point people either give up, or assume he might have a point. It's getting pretty hard to interpret his stuff charitably.

There was a post a couple months ago where that BillyBurns guy (some moderator and investor) said that Dean lost all his money altcoin trading. I have no idea if it's true, but say it was and Dean just came out and said: "Hey guys, I'm sorry but I got stupid and lost all the money on altcoin speculation. As such, I am am bankrupt and not in the position to payback investor. However, I really don't want to totally screw investors so I'll be working as hard as I can on the site to make more money to try make investors whole".


If that was the case (not implying it is...) it'd be easy to cut him some slack and say "ok, he fucked up badly but at least he's trying his best to right this situation".

But honestly I suspect he had good intentions at the start. He made a lot of money and was really happy. But when the price moved against him realized that he was going to lose some of that unrealized profit, and wasn't ok with it -- so just changed the terms of BKB with some pretty half-thought-out excuse for screwing investors.
