So what if we just let him do it??!!!
Such a statement, "c'mon guys, whaddya say?  should we let him steal the millions?"

But on the other hand, I agree it is humorous that the person with the most coins in the world stole them all like a true pirate.

The community learned another valuable lesson..  Goxxed... Mybitcoin... Bitcoinica... and now pirate.  I hope everyone has learned once again that you shouldn't trust strangers with your money!  Bitcoins stay in your wallet!

I am reminded of the pizza thread, how everyone's like "that pizza is now worth $300,000!!!" and now it's like "pirate stole over 10 pizzas from the community!!".  10 years from now, this could be a billion-dollar bitcoin heist. 

I'd act fast if you guys want the monies back.

So it seems like Pirate is defaulting and paying back money to the lenders and everyone will be like "Oh, cool, thanks." But somehow.. it's disappointing. Cause we've all sort of anticipated Pirate to pull a really big one.

Admit to it! Secretly you all longed for Pirate to screw you over and run with the money!

Being the one man on the planet to hold 1/42 of the world's capital (hypothetically speaking) brings along with it the potential of absolute grandeur.

So what if we just let him do it??!!! Take the coin pirate and make a run for it! And we crown him Captain of the Bitcoin ship.

What should Pirate do with the money if he got to keep it?

(All the rest of you guys wouldn't have a use for it anways, other than giving it to someone else...)
