Topic: I feel pity for Mike Hearn - page 2. (Read 2981 times)
I guess that it wasn't completely his fault that Bitcoin dropped in price so much. Maybe I misread the situation.
I don't feel any pity for him, just disgust.
He doesn't understand the mathematics of emergence from chaos.
Bitcoin will eventually fix itself. I have as much faith in Bitcoin as I do in mathematics.

I agree with this. No person, whatever mistakes he/she makes, can change the rules of mathematics. One plus one will be equal to two regardless of anyone's actions.
As we can see Bitcoin is going up again btw.
He talked at a local conference organized by a local variant of 3 letter agency.
I feel no pity for him, I just feel disgust with him. What actually happen with bitcoin is well-planned to attack bitcoin stability.
If he wants to work in a corporate environment with bosses telling him what to do, it is his choice. He worked at Google before and I was quite surprised at that statement. I would much rather work in a unstructured environment where innovation are not hampered by masters telling you what they want you to do.
If I have to pity him, it would be for burning the bridges with this community, in the way he did. The legacy he left behind here are full of deceit and lies and he will be remembered for that and not the other contributions he has made.

While I don't really have that much of an opinion now about the situation with Hearn, because I can see it both ways; I see a problem with your ideology that Bitcoin will just eventually "fix itself".
You can't leave a code that has obviously been giving devs, miners, and users trouble stagnant... you just can't. You have to fix it; that's just like saying that, "Oh, the foundation in my house has cracks, has termites, etc; but that's ok, because I believe my house will fix itself eventually. I believe in my house as much as I do with engineering."
what a happy day that one guy like hearn left forever

I feel pity that Haern is so immature and whiny person. If he don't like bitcoin and the community then why in the first place he was part of the developing team?
He thought that every changes he propose will be accepted without questioning and he will be bitcoin emperor or something? And when it is different story he got angry, really?

What a shame that we lost such a talented person Haern.

The Chinese miners Hearn is talking about wont allow Bitcoin to grow in HEARN's way, that's all. I don't think they are against a size limit increase if it makes sence and Hearn's did not.
He showed his true colors by be bought by the R3 team. Money talks and everyone has a price. Not to concerned with him leaving.

In the end, we must all choose our own paths. I wouldn't be surprised if Mike finds his way back to bitcoin in the future...

i read both articles. the followup and The resolution of the Bitcoin experiment.
what he is writing there really makes me worry about bitcoin. especially the part about the power of the big miners.

Once upon a time, Bitcoin had the killer advantage of low and even zero fees, but it’s now common to be asked to pay more to miners than a credit card would charge.
Why has the capacity limit not been raised? Because the block chain is controlled by Chinese miners, just two of whom control more than 50% of the hash power. At a recent conference over 95% of hashing power was controlled by a handful of guys sitting on a single stage. The miners are not allowing the block chain to grow.

if this really is true and will be the future. than i can totally understand that he left.

after what all bitcoin went through i don't think it's gonna fail as Mike sad he has the freedom to say what he won't or do but he only wants to drop bitcoin prices so he could buy and sell it again when bitcoin rise up again
Bitcoin fail only through bad-mouthing, that's Mike purpose, to drop a price, because he's don't have enough coin to dump the price. Feel pity to him is wasted your time.
I too feel a bit sorry for Mike Hearn after reading his write up on the current state of affairs. He is quite right and on the spot on most of his post and one can clearly see he wanted to change something and leave a dent on Bitcoin for the better and that this talk and all of the disregard for a block size increase made him tired.
I think he did well on going away, sad to see he didn't have much of a chance.

He might be right on a few things but he was wrong and spreaded a lot of fud on other things and all because he acted like a baby just because he didn't get his own specific way. Things need to change with bitcoin but just because they're not happening as fast as he would like or in his way doesn't mean to say he should just give up.
I just wonder if Bitcoin will be able to compete with whatever the R3 group is spending that 9 billion USD in research and development on. They seem to be assembling quite a bit of talent and money over there....Doesn't that group have quite a bit of power too? I just hope Bitcoin will be ready when the "REAL" fud starts rolling....Now they've scabbed Hearn, a core developer too? Help! Why shouldn't I be worried about what they're doing over there?
No pity for Hearn. This was a well-planned and strategic attack on Bitcoin by the international banks and financiers, and I believe that Hearn is one of their minions.
He should have left quietly now because of the negative effects he has done on the community,everybody are against here in the community ,bitcoin is now on the rebound at $370-$380 hopefully we will back on the $400 plus trading in the couple of months I am still excited to be on the bitcoin community despite of what happen ..
Bitcoin is moving forward. Its price gradually recovers back from previous low. Hearn' attempt to crash it has failed. Never mind. Check here http://coinjournal.net/scaling-bitcoin-austin-hill-blip/ Bitcoin will get its blocksize increased eventually. No matter in what way! Hearn has really bad attitude with his previous job.
he is pitiful but your sympathies would be wasted.
