I found that interesting. The original creators of minecraft are leaving with all the money. 1,75 BN for Notch, ~ 0,36 BN each for Carl and Jeb (Jakob Bergstein).

Jeb is not one of the founders.  The Jakob they refer to is Jakob Porser.  Jeb = Jens Bergensten and he's still at Mojang.

Oh, thanks for letting me know, I wasn't sure that Jakob was Jeb, I just assumed so, because his name started with J
