No there is nothing substantial, well, no real explanation, but that's because it's secret.  Why?  Protecting first mover's advantage.  I suspect that in January hysteria will brake lose.  If  you think we have trolls now, wait until then!  LOL.

Anyway, We all have to wait to know what's happening, and us cultists will do so dutifully because we trust Evan.  This is not trustless.  Dash centers around our core developers.  Obviously, they know what's going on, and they seem to think it's doable, and they've shown themselves to be intelligent and very bright.  So yah, need to evaluate, has Evan come through before?  Yes, some things he dropped like 2FA and MN blinding because even back then, he said he had an idea for a better way.  That idea turned into Evolution.  So there seems to be good reason for not coming through on those two items.  Why waste effort?

So yah, I trust Evan, so do a lot of us cultists.  It's been exciting and amazing to watch this coin get better and better.  Always something new around the corner.  No wonder we're cultists!  Best cult to be in here
