Well he just walked away with $500k and got more press than he could have ever paid for.

I've never heard of Enigma before today, hell I still don't have a clue what they are going to actually do besides an ICO, but I know they have just implemented best practices security and it's a safe bet to make money. I think PG calls this a submarine.

This is very clever. When the theft loss is dismal compared to the money raised, it only gets more press and more people buying the coin!
