Okey people, I must be honest that this does hurt saying but it seems the Dev ran away.
Couple of facts for believers, the "Dev" removed his name from the SilkCoin facebook page. So he liked a lot of posts in the past and is now "gone" from that Silkcoin page. Want to find out for yourself, follow the steps below:
- Search for Whois from Silkcoin, open cached
- use lastname of registered whois to search google in combination with Silkcoin
- open the cached facebook website and see for yourself

So think we have some evidence he is really leaving the boat, together with the fact that he sold the premine on mintpal. you can test it yourself by transferring some coins to the address the premine was moved to and then try to retrieve. You will get message "unable to withdraw from mintpal" bla bla bla
