If for some reason they were caught doing something worthy of changing the network, then I could see it happening. With their recent addition of video messaging, they pretty much have the best messenger app to date.
A nice thing is that you're allowed to use that network without using the official client. Unlike Signal, they're okay with third party clients, and there are libraries for multiple languages to help build your own client.
Unfortunately (this may have changed in recent times), they often don't update the public repos in line with their releases. They put them out all at once later. Also, last I checked only the clients are open source? Has that changed?
