The East Block Version 0.3 Repack Jun 2026

The East Block roadmap, published alongside 0.3, hints at even more radical steps by 2027-28:

With critical mass (12 countries, 400 million users by mid-2024), the East Block added what mattered most: identity and social graph. Version 0.2 introduced the Unified Digital Credential — a blockchain-anchored ID that could be government-issued or employer-verified, but never pseudonymous. This allowed for the East Social Protocol (ESP), a federated but content-moderation-hardened alternative to ActivityPub. For the first time, a user in Minsk could follow a friend in Caracas, with both governments able to flag “destabilizing content” in real time. Critics called it surveillance. The EDC called it “contextual integrity.” the east block version 0.3
