The initial escrow deal was that we were supposed to receive the funds back when the review campaign ended a while ago. We did not request the funds back so they are still with minerjones. We'd be happy to adhere to the 7 day delay rule you proposed, and I will ask minerjones if it's possible for him to confirm here that this rule will be enforced and the amount held by him at the moment.
I trust in @minerjones, but adding several users will be better, meaning that escrow address will be a multi-sign address, 3 out of 5 will be perfect or any other model.
Also, the distribution of escrow to include Bitcoin/DAI will be good with the amount of 50k USD or 60k USD.
