At that time he thought we would be further along and he thought the time would be right a lot sooner. Remember then the delay with the platform. He took action and put it in someone else's hands.
He probably agrees with some of us that the fake walls on the ask are largely responsible for the lack of volume. I wholeheartedly agree with that, I know a lot of people who won't make an entry because of it and I know longs who don't want to add. These unreasonable numbers on the ask make it look impossible to buy out and advance in the short term.
With the walls in place, the volume won't increase until we are further along with GG and can demonstrate stellar profits in the fins.
This is all my opinion and not based on anything said by anyone else.
