His wording in the second quote raised some flags for me:

the benefit of everyone, who will join.

So people will need to join this project? This isn't something we're already a part of?

new top tier scalable name

Is this the new company's name that will be scalable? Does this mean the name doesn't need to include anything relating to Steem?

everything will be new...

mission leveraging [gained experience]

So the whole mission will be new and based on the experience gained from Steem/Steemit? This doesn't sound like the wording of someone trying to improve an existing project.

On a side note, I didn't really keep up with how it's all been going but did Ned ever comment on the whole situation with dlive/lino? Last I saw he hadn't spoken on it, perhaps it's because it wasn't/isn't a concern of his anymore?
