You're actually right, it's not the end we'd be back after patching things up, it came at a really terrible time but then we'll forge ahead still. I'm glad we're seeing a lot of dedication.

Luckily we're a small and dedicated community and a small sum was stolen. We'll be back in the saddle in no time.

Honestly, this situation was unexpected. But what I can say is LEO has much more into it. Besides loosing the calm as u stated is not really going to make it work right now. In fact if LEO gets little down once again (to yesterday's low) will dive in to get some as well. 
Like many other LEO hodlers, I am in for long term as well. So this may be just a bump on the road but we have much bigger showcase to display. #LEO on the go!!

Nice video @taskmaster, I was right there with you buying today. There is something about a vlog that hits home better than a blog. Thanks for putting this out there!
