Hearn will be like a ticking time-bomb waiting to go off at R3C ... he's bitcoin's biggest asset right now. Can you imagine that arrogant little snipe not getting his way inside a corporate IT project, just waiting to slip the knife in or totally blow-up the project in a PR nightmare intended to destroy its credibility??

Having a loose cannon like that inside any organisation is dangerous, he was only tolerated in an Open Source project because once he did something just ok ... and then spent the rest of the time sulking and pouting after not getting his way when trying to force crap changes into the codebase.

Pretty sure we can pull the necessary strings to get Mike to do the right thing when the time comes, now he is gainfully occupied finally.
