Wonderful to hear about more P2P database sync systems! I would love to hear how you compare to Deepstream and us ( http://gun.js.org/ ), and http://Horizon.io ? Edit: Also how on earth did you snag `v.io`? That is amazing and I thought single-letter domains weren't allowed?

I'm assuming Horizon is in limbo along with RethinkDB?

It seems like it is no longer under active development. I hope I am wrong, but does anyone happen to know? It looks like a lot of the Googlers previously working on the project has now moved to Grail bio.

"a lot"? who else do you see besides Cosmos?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

So does .org, see http://www.project94.org/ .

I wonder how much they cost.

I believe the first round auctions (a couple of years ago) started at $50,000 for single-letter domains. As an additional barrier, it may also be that PIR require some kind of public-interest usage commitment.
