If your Chief Financial Officer is indicted for money laundering, it is a bit of a problem. Even if the charges are related to a completely separate company.

It even is a problem if the charges do not stick.

If these guys are as upstanding as Obie suggests they should resign as officers of Hashrocket immediately to avoid tainting hashrocket further.

The damage that has already been done can't be avoided but no need to risk further damage.

Distance is key here. Silent investor, maybe. Officer of the company, no way.

The bad bit here is that bankrolling legit companies like hashrocket from cash made with this scammy 'service' makes the money laundering claims more believable.
