Eventually the market figures it out. Move on. That's what Thiel is doing.

Thiel is an investor. Most investors eventually move on. He invested in 2004. 8 years, and he netted a billion dollar cash profit so far on a $500,000 investment. He's not in it for long-term company building like Zuckerberg is. He's not trying to be Warren Buffett. He shouldn't be panned for this. And he still owns millions of shares. So it's not like he's completely out.
