Yeah, you are exactly right. He is stepping down as he was for 'remain' and couldn't stay in power as 'leave' won. The UK is in limbo now as we wait to find out who our next leader of the Conservative Party will be (his party) and hence Prime Minister. The UK is not triggering "Article 50" which is the official notice needed to start leaving officially. The UK government doesn't want to start the ball rolling until everything is in place as there is a two year window to get everything sorted out. The EU is panicking because the uncertainty is crashing their markets much more than the UK, which in turn could destabilise the Eurozone. The pause in doing this could genuinely be because of potential political fall out, or, alternately, to raise uncertainty and do proportionally more damage to the EU before we start negotiations.
Cameron is currently acting as PM but will step aside as soon as everything is in place. What is interesting is he, so far, appears to actually be representing Leave's interests quite fairly, although these are just preliminary discussions.
We will see, it's complex and this is an over simplification, but I hope it gives you an approximate overview.
