Of course. It may take a month or two, but it will happen. In the meantime, possibly at least p2p exchange services like localbitcoins could be used to start discovering a market value. It basically requires enough people saying that they want to trade the tokens. We probably can find at least one smaller exchange looking to expand its userbase who will list it, and then, the ball starts rolling.
The token will be called JUICE, by the way... it's liquid, and it contains (energy and nutrient) value.
Hey @elfspice, are you aware of the fantastic work @paulag is putting into analysing the current profiles, voting habits and generally a wealth of information about Steemit. She is a statistical analysist and I believe her skills might be of use to you with your initial set up and ongoing development of the new Calibrae platform. She, like you is very interested in seeing things set straight.

I have already made the recommendation. ;-)
I have opted in.
please do contact me regarding any assistance I can give
Thanks, I've been catching up and reading the comment threads on the post and gaining a fuller picture of what has to be done, your motivations, intentions and plans.
I also don't have much of a stake here on Steemit. But, in the last couple of months, the payouts have been enough to pull me out of trouble and pay my bills. If I can be a stable platform, I could really have more of a solid footing pushing my artwork further in the "real world."
I hear you on the cold Winters. It was a topic in my most recent post. -20C while living a poorly "insulated" former East Berlin factory.
So wishing you full power, and good finances for ensuring a comfortable and cosy Winter, while you develop the Calibrae project further. =)
