I was around 14-15 when I first saw the opening of Patlabor via the music video for KMFDM - Juke-Joint Jezebel. The whole concept behind that intro left an enormous impression on me. Too young to know I was too young, I suppose.

The Laconic Foundation will be flipping the switch from testnet to mainnet soon. It's a major accomplishment for the community of folks that have formed during the testnet which has been operating without issue for almost a year. Without the help and support of that community, as well as other contributors, achieving this milestone would have been impossible.

As I understand the intent of LF, those testnet participants will have their tokens unlocked first. Ideally, in the coming months token holders will vote to unlock more tokens, do small/strategic airdrops, enable IBC, set up a community fund, etc etc.

Since I can't pull ravens out of my jacket on demand, I'll be working on Laconic for the foreseeable future. If you want to buy service from the Laconic Network, or would like to provide service to the Laconic Network, contact @laconicnetwork and they will sort you out.
