It has been an amazing ride and we are grateful for the support we received from the community and our partners.

Facebook to Acquire Synereo
Acquisition positions both companies on a track to completely revolutionize global communications and content distribution.

MENLO PARK, Calif., March 31, 2015: Synereo Ltd., the decentralized and distributed social network, is ecstatic to announce that it has reached an agreement for the acquisition of its technology and assets by Facebook Inc., worlds leading provider of social networking services, for a total of approximately $26.7 billion. This includes $6.8 billion in cash and the rest in shares of Facebook common stock (valued at $19.9 billion based on the average closing price of the 20 trading days preceding March 31). The agreement also provides for an additional $13.3 billion earn-out in cash and stock based on the achievement of certain milestones, making it Facebooks largest acquisition to date.

Synereo is a global leader in decentralization technology, having spent the last 4 years developing and implementing a unique fully decentralized P2P communication and content delivery stack that powers the attention-economy enabled social network. Synereo has conditioned the deal on the immediate implementation of its decentralized technology just shmecking the Facebook UI on top of Synereos backend as Synereo Co-Founder and President, Anderson Mccutcheon, put it.

We just put a decentralized bullet through Facebooks head said Synereo co-founder and CEO, Dor Konforty. By the time Facebook realize that a decentralized social network cant actually be acquired or controlled, well be long gone with the money, and Synereo will have over a billion active users.

I have no fucking idea what happened. Nobody talked to me, I feel like this was all done behind my back said Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg as he was bitchslapping David Wehner all the way to the coffee machine. At least I have chicken he concluded.

The transaction has taken place on March 22nd and will be fully represented in Facebooks financial reports for the second quarter of 2015.
