I see there are already some plans of a DEX in the white paper. Interesting.

I'm not sure I've understood softburn. Will unstaked coins in a forgotten v4 wallet be recycled after a time? If so I'm thinking that could allow for implementing a feature I would call Random Award Diamonds or RAw Diamonds where just installing a wallet you could start getting free diamonds in the microDMD range every other day or so to make it exciting. Abuse of this would need to be made too expensive. This would let people be able to try DMD without registering at an exchange and paying hefty withdrawal fees and going through the hassle. They could transfer to friends or just let sit in wallet and see new RAws popping up occasionally and get a taste for it. Once they've seen everything works from just downloading a wallet they could register at an exchange and make a buy and now they've also got a "home wallet" to offload to from exchange, which increases hodl-power in the community on top of number of new wallet holders. RAw diamonds would also counteract "the rich getting richer" problem of high stake reward share currencies. Cutting POW out is good in many ways but POW does force miners to sell broadly to people making not just the rich acquire more and more, thereby making POW a form of inclusivity and late to the game fairness feature. RAw diamonds would increase inclusivity and fairness (it's not your fault noone told you of DMD earlier so you could've gotten staking amounts early). Selling microDMD you haven't paid for would not be profitable due to exchange withdrawal fees so does not create a downward price pressure from those who do not buy DMD, and especially not a net down pressure given the amount of new users RAw diamonds could entice in the first place. If they just leave their microDMD in the wallet and do no more, those will be recycled after some years through the softburn? Also I think Random Award diamonds could open up some opportunities for a privacy feature gaining from a lot of transactions on chain. I'm not tech-savvy enough in the DMD DNA to say these things are necessarily so but perhaps DMD devs can create something with it.
