I will not be joining the upcoming AMA as I believe the new leadership should have the stage to itself and be judged on its own delivery.
Instead, I've answered the ten questions people keep asking me about the handover, in writing:

A word on the past few days.
I'll be the first to say it: this transition is not moving as smoothly as it should. The questions the community is asking are fair ones, and they deserve real answers.
What I will not do is let the project I invested nine years of my life in fall into chaos. I expect the new foundation to answer the community's questions. If questions are left unanswered, I will make myself available for them soon.
I remain a COTI token holder, in the same boat as you. I will judge on delivery.

Nine years and a full circle moment.
COTI started in 2017 as a payments network built on a DAG, with a simple idea: blockchains should work for everyday transactions. Nine years later, it has grown into a protocol far bigger than that original vision.
Thank you to the COTI team, past and present, for nearly a decade of real engineering. Thank you to the partners who bet on privacy before it was obvious.
And thank you, most of all, to the community that carried this network.
See you on-chain.
Shahaf Bar-Geffen, Co-Founder, COTI.
