One of the challenges with a project that has such an extensive history and huge ambition like the SAFE Network is providing newcomers with an easy-to-digest introduction to the project. This Forum is a treasure chest of information - but some people will have neither the time nor inclination to search the content and ask questions when starting out.

So we were delighted to receive this document a couple of weeks ago from two of the members of the community, @jpl and @polpolrene. The SAFE Primer document is a comprehensive introduction to both the story and the technology and intended to be shared widely. It’s a fantastic piece of work and from this point forwards, we’d suggest that you all use this document freely whenever explaining what the SAFE Network is and how it works.

You can now download the Primer directly from this website.

Of course, we can’t expect everyone to be up for reading a 28-page document. In the near future, we’ll be launching the SAFE Academy which will break down many of these concepts and also dig into each in a little more depth across a range of mediums. But in the meantime, the Primer gives us opportunities to explain more effectively why this technology is both so ground-breaking, inspirational and essential to us all.

Once again, massive thanks go to @jpl and @polpolrene who have done amazing work here - we truly appreciate the significant effort that’s gone into bringing this together. In addition, thanks also go to @fergish for his work in proof-reading the document.

Another great example of why this community is so special!
