They are around, there were a few at the Tokyo meetup last night. Didn't get around to chatting to them though, to busy with my nose in my beer. Plus the protester guys have been seeing some go in/out. But your right, they certainly doesnt seem to be anyone hanging around the forums dishing out internal intel. Perhaps they have some sort of amazing bonus structure where you get a certain amount of BTC per month to all employees, unless something ends up in the news that shouldn't be there and the bonus gets canned
so youve been japan last night, you live there I supose?
Did they say anything what was interesting for you?
