Good riddance. He belongs wedded to the corporate and government entities from which he came, like some golem made of mud and sticks. He does their bidding now, and is willing to sell out for just a few more bits of colored paper.

Interesting how the article said the Hearn rant shined more light on other altcoins, it mentions DASH and ETH. I suppose if you wanted to find the reason/motive for his rant find out which altcoin he moved to etc.

Like seriously, I still don't understand why the market reacted like it did back then. Whales are whale for a reason, they know exactly how to make money. But are they that easy to influence to make them start dumping like there is no tomorrow? Very weird.

My understanding is that Hearn is technically knowledgable, but he demonstrated questionable ethics during his time as a bitcoin dev. He pushed hard for identity verification in the client, and was involved in the implementation of blacklisting in XT. Nonetheless, some of his technical gripes do have merit. Nothing that can't be solved calmly and patiently. |
