looks like he stepped down.

but, the foundation was never going to make him.

maybe they gave him a starbucks gift card with over 9,000 BTC on it.

here's to you, mark...

I love how he's become associated with this Frappuchino.

Gox should've gone under too. I could never fathom why people actually flocked there. Their service has always been terrible.

It is interesting that even in resignation, Mark could cause the price of btc to drop!

I won't speak badly about him though as he did really help to get things going with btc.

And, he made possible the term (found in urban dictionaries) "I've been Goxxed!"  Grin

IAS
BTC = Black Swan.
BTC = Antifragile - "Some things benefit from shocks; they thrive and grow when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, and stressors and love adventure, risk, and uncertainty. Robust is not the opposite of fragile.
