Excellent analysis and great summary of the key developments over the last 9 months.

From my perspective as a business owner (@jpbliberty) who was looking to tokenise a new asset class (litigation funding) Steem-Engine was a dream come true. I am now 12 months ahead of a semi-competing project (Lawcoin on Ethereum) that I started 18 months behind!

What is possible on Steem is completely unrivalled anywhere in the blockchain/crypto space.
I feel that I'm beta testing the future.

Sooner or later these "expert"s and "consultants" will be mugged by the reality that Steem is delivering what everyone else just promises.
