Sort:  

yeah if good communities spring up, I'm still wondering if it will be just echo chambers or if there will be more cross-pollination, so yeah that is one thing you can always do if steem gets topped, you can just buy some and create derivative tokens for some use case, it's a soft fork of a sort, hence why stinc is really trying to capitalise on that opportunity, less potential forks, more money gets escrowed, steem value increases, their "investment" pays off, dunno everybody wins :|

I'm still thinking about the possible benefits, sounds nice, but it's not a full smart contract, it's just having the options you have on steem, but handed out to you, rather than having to spend months to develop a platform and having it still tied to steem and it's development and politics ...
