Just read this.

This explains a few things that have been happening. Sorry to hear merc has left, he obviously had too much on his plate for one individual. But maybe a transition to another developer would of been more appropriate.

This leaves a great opportunity for someone to take the reigns, and a great opportunity for buying also.

No worries elambert, I know you are an honest straight up guy and this must be as much of a shock and disapointment to you also.

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!

give me some time ... i just bought some from the sell-side with all the btc i had on exchange (not much). more btc coming in. will probably set up a few ridiculusly low bids for the panic-people to jump into ... sell it down another 60% for me please. I know i am mean, but what else can i say when you want to sell on the lowest point of the year?

Well I think merc didn't lie in his blog post so I'm going out on a limb and say that elambert might be a nice fellow but obviously is not willing to put in the work for CGB.
Also how is CGB going to find a new lead dev (one as good as merc too) with merc blog post there. Which dev will read that post and think "Yeah that sounds like a job I'd love to do.".

Colour me worried as fuck !

what's wrong with it? Did i miss something?

He probably started dumping a few days ago when questions were raised about huge numbers showing up at ridiculous prices.

I have just read the blog post on the CB site, and I just can't believe what a childish and selfish rant it is.

If he felt that way, then why go ahead and take it out on everyone who has invested their money into CGB by dumping his holdings and crashing the price like that effecting everyone involved. How can anyone respect someone who would do that? Did he not think of all the people who have put their faith and money into CGB?

It is a sad turn of events. Others here know me and have known me for some time now. I am not a dick and have been with CGB since the start through many ups and downs. I do have a family with a young son, a full time job and another business so my obligations are many. Each story has 2 sides and I will not get involved in a personal back and forth public character attack battle. More important things on the horizon. I am heavily invested in CGB and will continue to work with the community to make it a success. I do know for a fact that it was Mercury dumping the last weeks. He confirmed as much in an email.

We are moving on now and I will no longer discuss Mercury Stills nor MADEsparq.

Very mature response.

Two sides to every story, but I tend to believe the guy that takes the high road vs the guy that dumps his shares and collapses a project that many had invested their discretionary income into.

I still don't understand why you would dump all your CGB and undercut yourself on the price.  Could have divested slowly and made more money.
