We are thrilled to announce that Jocob Dienelt, a veteran at Morgan Stanley, has left to join the Factom Foundation.
He has joined the team as a Treasurer. This was pretty big news so it was covered by a few media outlets today.

What would be the advantages of FACTOM over a FACTOM clone where the mining is removed from the data layer and the database of hashes is under centralized control for whoever is using the FACTOM clone?

The security seems to be the same since the top hash is put into bitcoin in both systems. The ability to audit seems similar too.
The blockchain adds irrevocable hashes in the FACTOM blockchain but couldn't FACTOM clone just publish the database of hashes for anyone to mirror if that was important?

Have you speculated on if people will stick with FACTOM for simplicity or will a whole slew of clones appear customized for each client? FACTOM like systems seems like they could be quite useful for a lot of uses.

I'm looking for info. on the yet to be released Factom software. Will it be multi-threaded? If so, how many threads will it utilize? Other system requirements? Designed for everyday home user or a more specialized computer? Etc etc.

Using Proof of Stake will end up with Masternode stakeholders owning a lot of beach front property.
Edit: Proof of Stake will allow large Factoid holders to vote on the conversion rate. They will make it prohibitively expensive to buy entry credits. Wealthy attackers can create counterfeit entries and cause genuine entries to be ignored by consensus. In other words, Proof of Stake is not a good consensus, especially for property. Wealthy factoid holders will collude to attack record systems of valuable real estate. This has already been done in countries that have gone to computerized real estate bookkeeping. It would be better to not avoid Bitcoin's consensus approach. Proof of Work offers stronger protection from such attacks.
This.  A thousand times this.  Attacking POS is economically more feasible than POW.
I'm not sure I completely understand your points... But want to point out that Factom is secured by Bitcoin which is PoW

@FACTOM   @mortified     @Mashuri
Can you explain this concern deeper
or illustrate by an example/numbers?
