RE: Follow the development of the DIV Whitepaper
Interested and will dive into #Div to see how I can help. What's the key distinguishing factor?

Fully open governance, self hosted codebases, full peer to peer service of the web application and content delivery, 'Fabric' style isolated databases for subunits of the system, a simplified token ledger that uses a property registry model instead of a double entry ledger model, and the necessary 'change operation' justifies the payment of INTEREST on the deposit instrument, there is no option to self-vote (every post is also a vote) and a geographically fractalised Validator network that aims for sub 1 second clearance of transactions and 1 minute complete confirmations, and a Validator election system that encourages competition for slots in the regional and global parts of the network, and no n-Person Prisoner Dilemmas in any voting system. Of course, a peer to peer long and short form account integrated messaging system, external account validation system, to round out the user side features.
On the backend of it, the use of gossip protocols to accelerate confirmation and fork (double spend) elimination, and epidemic distribution patterns to accelerate the process of synchronising replicas and archives. 3 tiers of servers, the Validators, Replicators (RPC) and Archivists (store an unpruned complete database for when RPC's have pruned relevant data from a search), and an infrastructure to enable full text searching, indexing, categorisation and as much machine-processing of the post and media content as possible.
