I hated selling in February, even though it raised enough money for me to quit my job. I was sure I would regret it. As it happens, I was wrong about regretting it, since I now have the opportunity to buy low.
I'm a little confused that people are criticizing me for buying MSC. It seems like the obvious thing to do, both for myself and the project. I understand that lots of money was lost (on paper) when the price fell (nobody lost more than I did), but I fully expect people who purchased even at the peak price to make a fantastic long-term profit. As they say on the bitcoin reddit: HODL!*
Speaking of my buying, for sake of transparency, I'll disclose here that I'm currently putting together a deal for myself and other MSC insiders to purchase a block of MSC from a third-party project which has a block of MSC but needs cash to pay developers (not Maidsafe - I asked them if they would sell some, but they are holding).
I did negotiate a discount off spot prices (by pointing out that selling on the exchanges would lower the price far more). If anybody here is interested in participating in group buys of this sort, you can PM me. I probably can't include you on this particular buy, but there could be more in the future if similar situations arise.
Thanks!

Please avoid speculating about the coin value, regardless of if you are buying or not, by talking about it like this it spreads ill will- (did not your selling in few contribute to the price collapse after which you now want to buy it all back? Your hoard makes or breaks the market- if you are profiting off it, and you shouldn't, you certainly shouldn't be talking/bragging about it.) it's in poor taste. :-(
