At 5:44:14am PST this morning, the eBTC community was blindsided from what seemed to be a hack. Our founder, Satoshi21 first deleted himself from the eBTC team chat. Then systematically deleted eBTC's Medium post, our website, and Twitter. While we believe this to be completely out of character for Satoshi21, we also need to believe that we are under attack and there is a minute possibility that it was all planned from the onset. As such, we, the eBTC team is mobilizing to figure out which plan of action would be best for our community and how to regain trust.
As a team we were in the late stages of finalizing and paying 32eth (from the team's collective pockets) for a swap of all tokens through Merkator (spelling), to close the origin wallet infinite coin vulnerability. Unfortunately, Satoshi21 was the only one with access. Since we cannot gain entry, we need to create an entirely new contract/product.
Seeing this unfortunate chain of events, our team, which is intact believes we can create an entirely new product and add benefit to current tokens holders. It's perfectly natural to panic and we were too, until we figured as a team, we can do something to protect our community.
Yeah, there's no reason to trust the project after what happened, but those in the community who still believe in our team and community--hold on tight. We plan to make it right, but it's going to take some time. Please be patient with us as we go where no token project has gone before. We will continue to update as necessary.
Thank you.

Satoshi21 probably paid them in eBTC, they are trying to dump their shares by buying time, I would suggest they don't try this as they could end up in a cell next to Satoshi, the feds are going to be taking an interest in this one for sure but either way, don't fall for it.
