Isn't malreynolds the guy Who Sold all his lisk to invest in etc???
Yes, he is . He is the same who sold his ETC shares and invested in another coin, while making some nice profit. He's in lisk to stay long term, but since there is no forging at this moment on lisk, there was no sense in keeping his coins blocked in lisk.
He did a tremendous job on lisk community, organizing a bunch of "pirates" into what is called GDT, the core lisk enthusiasts that are currently supporting test and mainnet(along with genesis delegate of the team, while working on stabilizing the blockchain) of lisk. Fouding ARK members are some of these GDT members.
