What I don't understand is why canton handed over such a sensitive and popular website to new owners who reputation was still unknown?
Why didn't he just put down the whole project if he could not proceed, supporting it?
I mean, that's a honeypot for scammers. It was a just a matter of spending a few thousands of dollars to buy it and then later scam the hell out of some many users who used the site
To make some money from a project they had made!
But it wasn't really popular though, bitaddress.org was popular and is still around. This other site came later and tried gaining some popularity by duplicating the same service but couldn't succeed as much. Then the developer abandoned it while trying to make some money from his work.
In any case people shouldn't be using a website to create their bitcoin wallets in first place! That's just silly and extremely insecure regardless of what website you are using or who controls it.
