I like your assessment, and I too think we may be the distribution side of this. Just seems odd for Michael to leave his "baby (ibrands)," as he put it in the video, if we are not interconnected with this move in a major way.
Remember, he said he has worked with three other partners for many, many years, and that the 4 of them were running ibrands. And that is was their "baby." His wife also owns the other 5 bil shares that he "transferred" within lightwave. (his wife is the other half of lightwave.)
I say if he really feels this way about ibrands, then NO WAY does he leave it, unless he knows he will still be connected in some way (majority shareholder along with his wife), and in fact, has plans to do MAJOR business together. This move may be the best move seen, to bring ALL of US to our wildest dreams.
It just irks me quite a bit to know that he is publicly releasing info through another company's 8k about his resigning here, while leaving us in the dark with nothing but rampant speculation. Not cool. Maybe he really likes to surprise people?
