Since your team will be re-writing the blockchain, there are lots of room for bugs/vulnerabilities to be introduced in the process. Do you plan on having the code reviewed/audited with outside sources to make sure there are no issues? If not this would be a good thing to do, maybe give bounties for it. Also, is the new code open source? We also need a reddit sub
Yes the entire code would be open-source and will be published on https://github.com/deroproject repository.
Yes there would be code review and audit and there will be bounty too.
Reddit is ofcourse required but we plan to create it when we atleast release our alpha code something of our own.
