"In Texas, at a Bitcoin conference that began on Wednesday, Brian Page, the director of communication for a company called Bitshares, said that initially, he was shocked by the apparent unmasking, but then he reflected.

'I have no idea if it’s the guy or not, but it doesn’t matter,' he said. 'He created something historic but it doesn’t matter if he is found.  Bitcoin is launched and it’s not under his control or anyone’s control.'

At least that wasn't on Brian.

What was actually quoted was a great response.

NY Times is the second most popular daily in the United States, and Brian's quote/Bitshares is what they felt was strongest to end the article.

Actually, calling the company "Bitshares" is probably a good thing - since Invictus product names all start with the word BitShares :)
