I'm glad to hear that you like what we've been doing so far and I completely agree that the power in this lies in the fact that it is a joint effort by people who see mutual value in the SBA.
The idea of continuously selling initially held stake is more of a "long term ICO" model than a proper business model in my eyes. I have no issue with them doing it, but it for sure can't be the only example for others to follow. Helping improve the sustainability and scalability of the business models of the members through sharing advice, experience and best practice will indeed be a key component of our work going forward.
Great points @fredrikaa, @daveonarrival, I am looking forward to the day when the Steem blockchain has viable businesses, with which it can bring in an order of magnitude more money than it is selling
