This coin is safe to buy, but do not trade BTC-PAC, since the number of digits is too low with the current PAC coin and its low price. It will be 1 Satoshi, or 2 or 3 and so on, when trading against BTC. You want to be able to choose (example) 1.65438. This is not possible when trading against BTC. After the redemption that starts on February 1 this will be no problem at all and the new PAC coin can be traded against BTC then.
Now everyone is waiting until Cryptopia opens the LTC-PAC and DOGE-PAC trading.
(Once that markets open, the far less intersting BTC-PAC market will have to follow).
The PAC team just applied for 2 new exchanges, see here at PAC's Twitter channel
The PAC future insights can be found here, take a close look at page 8, this document looks very good:
https://www.docdroid.net/0PtkXDK/paccoin-future-insights.pdfThe new website will have the same look and feel.
The current website was just placed behind a Cloudflare wall, because a lot of traffic is expected.
On January 19, there will be a live streamed press conference/Q&A session with the PAC DEVS.
Everyone be patient until Cryptopia solved their problems. The future for this coin looks very bright i.m.o.
