It looks like the initial coin generation phase is over - instead of Proof of Work, we had Multi-Proof-of-Burn.

Now the plan is to move onto a new blockchain with a new purpose, and begin Proof of Stake.

Of course, as always, anyone who doesn't want to burn their BARR and swap to the new blockchain can keep their coins and continue on the NXT Platform as always.  Their BARR will still continue to function the same.

But we haven't set a firm date yet for the swap, so there's plenty of time to think and discuss.
