Yes, but the part you quoted, is a speculation, therefore it's made up, just like your speculation. If you going to convince anyone, you'll need to post something written by the dev team.
Daniel isn't part of the dev team? Are you even aware of what the merger entails?
The merger is very clear,
80% existing BTSX
7% PTS
7% AGS
3% DNS
3% VOTE
The dev team will actually use some of their own dev funds to pay extra to the DNS holders, to make up for value lost after the announcement.
Where do you see a pay to the dev team in the merger? point it out
