better good than fast ... .but how is this different from steemengine ? i mean on the practical side, not the technical side ... (other than the fact that steemengine is 'private enterprise where part of the money goes one way as you need 100 steem to start a token ...) (im behind 17 days so if anyone answers i'll probably see in 3 weeks ...)
yea i'll be around here too until they take down the last node but the signals arent very hopeful , given the fact that the biggest seller didnt sell this month ? someone seems to use the cushion somewhere as not up one cent but down another two again , it smells like sabotage almost where a rival is selling in spirals ...

... I guess in my mind Steemengine should not have the exclusive on anything, including tokens (even on practical side, SMT looks to be a different thing to me with way longer in the making). Things of value must stand on their own feet, which means stand up to a little competition. I think both can co-exist - but I'd expect some would disagree; I guess competition will sort it out, i.e. if SMT sux, it won't be used.

..in terms of price drops, it doesn't seem unique to Steem; so not sure it's a sinister as you elude to, but I take your point there is some unusual behaviour - maybe someone should make an app to show who is selling off what across whole chain, or does this already exist somewhere? (always so much new dev here).

No no, testnet should go live in a couple weeks :)

Cool - wasn't clear in this post. If you need an extra semi-technical tester, feel free to send me a walk through script. I run Windows.
