Yeah that amazed me also that they failed to produce any kind of blockchain. All they had to do was start a new bitcoin ledger or whatever using the openly available bitcoin software, as several other coins did at the time. They did try to hire a techy at least once to do it, but he refused to take part in it after getting suspicious. But they didn't even bother to try and hire someone else?

Apparently they were using an excel sheet for account balances and transfers.

I wonder what the max transactions per second rate is in a shared Excel doc. More than 7/s?
