grincon(0)<US> website is up: Jan 28 2019, San Mateo CA.
Tari Labs published a comparison between Grin and Beam, and also an analysis on some of the design choice criticisms Grin has received. Unfortunately both articles contain factual inaccuracies. It nevertheless feels as an earnest effort to be balanced and informative, something we cannot get enough of in this space. The Tari team reached out to say that they welcome corrections, so feel free to submit pull requests to them so the content can become up to date and more accurate.
