If the company were stripped down to the bare bones -- and with the added value Roger Ver will get from promoting BCH or his other ventures -- perhaps an acquisition makes sense. I don't know anyone else besides Roger Ver who has the money and unique incentives to make it worth it. I don't personally see much of a future for Purse.io, but I'm no business guru.
Will purse.io transform into a scam political attack tool under Roger Ver's ownership or he should be cheered because he saved it?
I'm not too concerned either way. If Bitcoin users find value in it, I'm glad to see them pull through in some form.
Purse.io simply isn't that relevant anymore. BitPay's attacks -- publicly pushing for contentious hard forks, charging "network fees" and inaccurate mining fees and blaming small blocks for it, misleading messaging about fees in the BitPay/Copay wallets -- were a lot more concerning. Purse.io is a small fry compared to them. I see Roger Ver retaining value for BCH users more so than attacking Bitcoin with this.
