If Baron needs to lead us on a wild goose chase and make all this crap about "uh, what's a block chain"... cheers to Jed for doing what he did. If I were Jed, I would stash that money somewhere safe and keep my mouth shut, until someone stepped forward with a credible claim to it. It sounds like that's exactly what he is doing.
I don't fully understand what's going on myself. Maybe because Baron's writing are more terrible than mine?
Even so, I am still waiting for information from MtGox.
