I hope there are two announcements:
Coinbase partnership.
Pat&Doug putting school on hold in order to better run a multi-million dollar coin.
Sorry, not dropping out of school. I'm pretty close to done and I can't live on no income (my PhD program pays me decently).
How many coin devs do you know that don't have some other job? Besides Gavin Andresen and some of the devs that started coins supported by giant IPO/ICOs (Ethereum, etc.), I don't know of any "full-time" coin devs.
