Title: altcoinUK account hacked or sold? I doubt he sold it?

His entire posting and writing style looks different too.

Also is  this person controlling his account is turning slowly pro Iota ?

This is a suspicious account now to say the least. I would watch how things go with that account from here on and trade with caution.

According to Bitcointalk's seclog (https://bitcointalk.org/seclog.php), passwords have not been changed for the account "altcoinUK" (at time of posting since Dec 19, at least).

However, last post before today had been posted on August 28, 2016, 05:44:36 PM. If it was sold or transferred to a third party (which indeed at first glance on the writing style transformation appears to be the case imo) it seems that this happened at some point after that date, and perhaps the new "owner" deliberately waited to post until today.

On another note, it could very well be the same man or woman, given that "altcoinUK" has been a controversial figure before. Some people may very well change their writing styles (and even intentions) -- even on purpose.
