According to the Miami New Times, Cryptsy founder Paul Vernon, otherwise known as “Big Vern,” has spoken to the publication while in hiding. The New Times ran a report on Cryptsy last week, and according to Vernon’s wife he dipped off to China with a girlfriend. Apparently, after this article was published, Vernon reached out to the news outlet willing to talk and answer questions.

For some reason I had assumed he had been in custody/ was cooperating with police. Kinda silly to get missing with that much money when your identity is plainly known, you would be a marked man for the rest of your days. Also, silly to run if the reason for Cryptays failure was legitimate, and not just an excuse to shift liability.
