Serious question, though.
How do you plan on getting past those gatekeepers at STINC? Or, are you trying something that dodges them altogether?
Maybe I'm way off the mark. I'm hoping it's something that will drive commerce, like ways to spend and burn Steem, versus just the current speculative coin.
I am working out the conditions of the types of projects that can potentially be supported but I will likely exclude those that are steemit-based and favor those like what you mentioned above. We need to build services that utilize the Steem blockchain, not keep relying on "Steemit" to be the sole use case.
Need need to get around STINC, hopefully they see some value in what will be done. If someone does need funding for a project that actually alters the chain and requires a fork, etc. we'll cross that bridge should that time come.
