Are #travelfeed going to start a tribe? There's tribes for this and that, but travel is sorely missing.. and needed. A token would be very welcome I think.

Tribes are an amazing thing, but a lot of tribes and tokens are coming out these days that are made of nothing but thin air, and most of these tokens are actually launched not by registered companies and without any regulatory approval, which can cause lots of legal problems, mostly for the individuals issuing them, but also for those buying them, who have no legal basis to recover their investment if the token issuer decides to e.g. massively increase the token supply.
We have been working on our own token for months, and we are still tuning the economic model which will incentivise users, bloggers as well as advertisers to buy and stake the token. We are actively working on incorporation and compliance with regulations regarding a token launch. There will be more details about our token later this year. Unless there are some surprising developments in SMTs (which we would prefer over steem-engine, since SMT tokens based on blockchain consensus are truly decentralised, contrary to the current steem-engine tokens), it will come out as a Steem-engine Scot token.
Instead of using a Nitreous/Condenser instance, we have been developing our own dApp for the past 8 months, it currently is in Beta on https://travelfeed.io/, have you used it yet? There are tons of features to come in the next months, but apart from the much prettier visuals, through the location search, the dashboard and the location picker it already provides some significant added value for travellers and travel bloggers compared to a Nitreous instance.
Hey thanks for the great reply. I figured you might be doing something, and yes an SMT would be preferable, but how long do we wait for those? Things appear to be happening but the track record has been poor so far.
What will happen to Scot when SMT's arrive? Is there room for both, or is one going to fall on it's arse and fail?
