After five years, who to blame ? And how old instawallet users woke up after five years ? If you spent few bucks before five years to fulfill your instawallet then forget about it,now you would a lot of money to get the same amount .
If Boussac doesn't hold old funds, then i doubt he can pay everybody even he wants to . From other side, he would also verify the real old users before to pay anything .
Anyway, we still need his opinion about this as he didn't set a limit period to payback users and there is no reason for him to ignore several claims. TryNinja affirmed that he didn't get any response from Boussac after a long period from sending him PMs about the situation.
He is responsible for our old bitcoins even if he Has information on site he is not. All lawyer say that. In the past it was only secret link with btc so he cant verify anybody by id.
