It sounds very interesting. However, I could not get an understanding of how it all works together. Is there some presentation or article or whitepaper similar to what 3Speak recently presented on Hivefest that describes the functioning of the whole sidechain?

There is a a ton of documentation and other at github and on our site. There is even a couple of videos on Youtube explaining DAO and DLUX but nothing as polished as 3Speak. What is cool is that all of this stuff works now. Here is our DeFi method is terms of a table game.
In simple terms running a node is much like playing Settlers of Catan. You have a clearly defined rule book with clearly defined ways to earn points. Now you want to trade some wood(HIVE) for some bricks(DLUX). You can see everybody who is playing. You, Alice, sends an escrow transaction of 1 wood, hoping to receive 2 bricks, to Bob with Charlie as the escrow agent. The rules are simple enough, if Bob or Charlie mishandle the escrow transaction all the players will force them to dump 4 bricks with Alice receiving 2 of the bricks. If Dan, Erin, or Floyd... or even Bob or Charlie wish to spend 2 bricks to get the one wood they'll send a custom Json transaction letting all the player know they accept the terms. All the players adjust the wood/brick balances as the escrow transaction goes through and Bob finally sends the wood to the purchasing player. If the last transfer fails to happen Bob will have 4 bricks subtracted from his balance by all, and two will return to the purchasing player. By collateralizing the transaction the worst that can happen from the point of view of the initial and purchasing players is a failed transaction. From the point of view of the bad actor the best they can do is pay double the listed price for a resource.
Would you like to create a more polished presentation of how the whole thing works? What you are doing sounds so interesting but I don't see it getting funded if people have no understanding of how it works. Please, consider making a presentation and I'm sure you'll get a lot more support.
