However I am hopeful that some other projects will come up (maybe based on http://www.gocircuit.org/ ) that will give us the same functionality with a verifiable code base.
I've been waiting for some free time to write a client myself - go circuit looks very interesting for that!
We've been working to get it to a point where it'd be ready for a "Show HN". We finally got connection encryption working last night, so hopefully that will be in a week or two.
"Our goal is to build a sharing tool that lets you move big files, and big ideas, freely. Without surveillance." [1]
Unfortunately without proof this sort of marketing sounds like "give us all of your data, we won't look, we promise."
... I may be a little cynical because I like the idea of decentralized sync.

Are they planning on open sourcing the code at a later date or have they simply kept quiet this whole time, hoping the issue will go away?
SyncApp is wonderful but I don't feel comfortable with it being closed source and your infrastructure being used. Thus I use it only to transfer files between computers I wouldn't mind sharing with the world.
Dunno if it works for files of different sizes, though. It probably won't, since the blocks won't be in the same positions.
