Ned isn't exactly the most tactful guy. He makes a lot of mistakes that could be alleviated just by communicating well. It's still a small group of people and if he would be open and honest with us, we would get father, faster. As it is, all the obfuscation and double-talk are doing more to hurt Steemit than anything else. I still remember him going on Bloomberg and the price dropping immediately after. Doesn't bode well. Still, we'll see.
