Fantasyman's explanation made perfect sense here....

It's a business decision.

Lets say Acacia has a 10% chance of winning the battle over these patents (even though I think its a bit higher than that).... that would make CE liable for most likely tens of millions of dollars.

Why risk being _legally liable_ for 10's of millions when you can make a little legal deal, removing several zero's and STILL fight & financially back the cause. (which most people reading/complaining will not be doing anyway).


FM has a little more at stake than the people that got into this in the past couple years making 5k-50k/month.

Anyone that has "Lost respect for CEcash" really needs to step back and re-evaulate the situation - as if it was YOUR money that was at risk.
