Message on telegram from dev
"Hello everyone,
This is Satoshi21. I know you're all wondering why I did this, the answer is I was simply overwhelmed. Today I panicked, I just wanted to be done with the project. I never thought the project would grow to this size, I didn't think it would be so demanding. I wanted to be done with eBTC so I could move on with my life. This project was never a scam, even after what I did today it's not a scam. eBTC has a fantastic team that I hope can repair the damage I've done and build eBTC into what I first envisioned. I just no longer want to be a part of that. As to why I didn't give any warning, I panicked, I don't care about the money, in fact if any of you guys on the team could provide an ETH address to CoinYE West I will send you all the ETH obtained from selling the eBTC along with the remaining eBTC. I just want to move past this, I hope you guys will let me. I'm truly deeply sorry to all of you, you don't deserve this. "
