Yes it met the minimum of £1m (ended on £1.3m) which means that the deal goes ahead.

I’m just learning about some drama with Greg Meredith, are there any good pieces to find out more?

Seems like Synereo are headed towards the trough right now…will they make it out alive…
I’d wager, the SafeNetwork is now moving along the ‘Slope of Enlightenment’ …a good place to be.

Steering back on topic, I just about forgot about the 600K Hong Kong based investment/partnership. Wondering when we will hear more on that!

That and Glasgow University building secure apps on top of the safe network! I’d love to hear more on that as well as Hong Kong when there is news to share @nicklambert very excited for the team on these fronts

Things are progressing well with Glasgow uni. @Viv and I met with one if their cs professors late November and the Safe network part of the course will happen late feb/early March. That will focus on their 2nd yr students initially.
The discussions with the Hong Kong based investors are also ongoing, they actually came to Scotland to see us last week. Lots of potential with this partnership provided with excute everything well. We are taking baby steps at the moment and as soon as we have something substantial to share we’ll certainly do so.

That’s great! I figured it wouldn’t be till around Q2 for things to kick into gear but it’s nice to hear how tentative maidsafe is being. Love seeing these relationships, whether financially tied or not, being fostered. Can’t wait to see what’s next for CEP as well. Keep up the great work it means a lot to us

I hope the HK delegation were treated to a few of the finer malts in the Anchorage.

One interesting possible outcome of Synereo losing their CTO and anticipated Rchain platform, and IMO a very sensible, cost effective option for Dor and those who wish to see his vision realised, would be for them to build on the SAFEnetwork.
It is a much smaller risk than any alternative I can imagine (including Rchain before this falling out!), will be a fraction of the cost and time, and they can get going right away which will be important in order to build confidence and encourage investors to stick with them and reduce calls for refund.
They could perhaps refund those who want out after they’ve presented a revised plan, and may still have enough funds to complete development on SAFEnetwork.

I’m not sure what is more outrageous… BITFINEX seeking 80mil on BNK or the fact that they are almost halfway there. Mental

I bought a few amps before the crowdsale so have been following this quite closely. I actually mentioned in the Synereo Slack that maidsafe could be a good option for them if maidsafe goes into full launch within the next 6 months. Dor said they will be looking to build on top of something that exists, but I’m hoping they haven’t completely ruled out this option. If maidsafe can release vaults soon and enter a beta phase it could be more likely IMO

It depends what his alternatives are. If he has something that already works, Dor’s right because until SAFEnetwork is proven that would be a big risk. But as you say, things might well change and they might pivot again! I don’t follow the project closely myself - here is where I’m at! Although I did sign up for the beta yesterday But good to know you are, and looking for ways to bridge the two projects.

Yeah, I have followed maidsafe for longer but I am interested in a decentralised social network because I’m not happy with the current relationship with Facebook and I think more people are becoming aware of the privacy issues with it. I’m not sure if there is enough worry in the mainstream for synereo to be a big success but it will be interesting to see them try.
