ned, I do not for one second dispute that tokens pre-date muse artists tokens.  I have read the SMT whitepaper and understand many of the concepts.  I take issue with you labeling me as a fudster.  It is positively excruciating to see such a lack of sense and fairness continually exhibited by the CEO of the organisation with the most massive control over the fate of this network.  If you disagree with me fine, but the truth of my integrity is in the blockchain.  So is the truth of yours.

I've just re-read the SMT's whitepaper and I must admit, I do struggle to see the innovations that are not combinations of what has come before.  I'm simply not technically astute enough to see them if they are there.  However, I couldn't care less if there is true innovation in the speculation of a whitepaper.  What I do care about are the risks given the current state of the economics in Steem and the potential risks due to regulation.
