What to (still) expect from PDC in the future?

I suggest you mention them as they may only be notified if mentioned.

Hi @Seneca, @Bzee,

Any comments regarding

  1. How is the development of the Decorum project using Rust coming along?
  2. Did you thought of a Plan B for the Decorum project is to explore outside Safe Network (Cosmos, Near, Polkadot, …)?
  3. Is there a plan for a buy back PDC?

Hi Sam,

  1. Slowly but surely. We’re currently working on a Tauri/Svelte application, which should allow us to at least re-use the entire frontend in our future web-app when we have a SAFE browser again. What we’re currently working on should be considered a proof of concept again, since so much has changed (and quite a bit is still changing) in SAFE since our releases in the past. Once we’re satisfied that we have encountered and fully grasped all of the fundamental challenges to implementation of our core features, we’ll start working on a proper minimum viable product. We’ll likely share our proof of concept at that time, if it isn’t broken too quickly again by updates to SAFE.

  2. I’ve considered this in the past, but nothing I’ve seen so far beats the potential of SAFE. Most other networks need to sacrifice much decentralization for the required scalability for a social media platform. SAFE promises a unique mix of attributes and features that in my view are worth the wait.

  3. Perhaps. I’ve been advised to not make any commitments until there’s a definite yes or no, and a definite yes would only come when/if all legal and accounting consequences would be clear and acceptable, and everything would be ready for execution. It’s a complex and delicate matter, I hope you can understand the need for caution.

Thanks @Seneca for the reply. I appreciate getting this information.
I have some follow on questions related to your reply:

  1. How can we follow the progress? Any github?
  2. How long are you willing to wait? Check out Desmos mainnet which just released on August 31 (on Cosmos).
  3. When do you expect to know the legal and accounting consequences? Have you taken any steps towards clarifying these consequences?
    Thanks in advance for any further information you can supply!
