Hi All

I'm back from a bit of required leave and just getting back into the thick of things.

First off, welcome to 297, and thank you for the comprehensive update. We've been in direct and constant communication with 297 from the start and throughout this year. They have been a great source of advice and guidance over the last few months.

Audit
As there has been some accusation of improper handling of company funds I have invited a detailed audit of all internal operations of DigiMex. As 297 stated, the audit will go beyond the normal accounting submissions as was required for the financial reports (Jan/July) and cover everything that the auditor deems fit to investigate, including (but not limited to) mining reporting, payout endpoints, wallet transparency and expenditures. My only request to the auditor was that the privacy of any involved parties (other than my own) remain intact, unless relevant.

Communication
Public communication from my side has been very few and far between. There really is no excuse for this and is a major shortcoming of myself. I have been in constant and direct communication with the group of people who represent a majority of the public shares, but I've not always been as vocal as I would have liked to have been on this forum (publicly). That said, while I've had to execute on some NDAs, I've never initiated any, so if you've had a conversation with me on any topic please consider the information in the public domain and feel free to share it here.

Creditors Committee
Committee work is ongoing. Apart from the information which is publicly available I'd prefer not to divulge any other information or my opinion of the process here, lest it jeopardise our position on the creditors committee. Much to my chagrin, the Debtor renewed their NDA to committee members, and legal counsel gave the go-ahead to execute on it. What I can say is that I don't serve solely as representative of DigiMex on the committee, US bankruptcy law allows for a alternate DigiMex representative on the committee and I felt it prudent to solicit that representation. The appointed person was also instrumental in the structuring of our filed proof of claim, which is backed by contractual guarantees.

Pool Development
There is much to say regarding the ongoing bitcoin mining development work that we're involved in. I agree with 297 that an update on the status of developments and the reasons for the pool undertaking is due. After a full year of what can only really be described as "damage control" it made sense to leverage the lessons we've learnt from the problems we (and others) faced and use them to build something which has the potential for long-term relevance.
