I think the amount of money involved is getting large enough to hold some people (at least moraly) accountable

If you lose something valuable you are accountable. No one is making any promises to you here.

No one is making any promises, and in priciple I agree everyone is responsible for their own stupidity. But if I'd been one of the core developers and if I would have any doubts, I'd still feel moraly obliged to speak out very loud before cashing in bigtime.

I disagree.
I agree with the guy disagreeing with OP. OP I disagree. The information is all available for anybody wanting to do their own due diligence before deciding on their comfort levels with bitcoin.

With about 30$ being paid for one bitcoin, I think it's time the 'core developers' take a stand on how they value bitcoin. In an 'Omega Tau' podcast from March 19th, I hear Gavin Andresen say:

"At this point, I would advise people not to make heavy investments in Bitcoins." (31:10).

Is this still his point of view? What is the opinion of the other developers? Satoshi Nakamoto, Martti Malmi, Amir Taaki, Pieter Wuille, Nils Schneider and Jeff Garzik?

I think the amount of money involved is getting large enough to hold some people (at least moraly)  accountable of something goes wrong. And I think this also holds for not speaking up.
