Ok, let's assume freebitco is still owned by the same people.
Now the question is why they aren't responsive to their users like before and why they don't make any annoucement about what's going on with the website.
They’ve always admitted to being a very small team, basically just wetsuit and The Quin, with wetsuit being a likely single point of failure. There are many possible reasons for why he is no longer able to manage the website like before. Bitvest was in a similar position and things became progressively worse after lightlord supposedly had Covid. FreeBitco.in's silence just means there is something which they don’t want us to know.
