Does anybody here realizes that Stratis does not require their tokens for the technology to work?

They say so in their own white-paper:
"Stratis is designed with the integration of fiat gateways
in mind from the outset. It allows financial
organisations to use the blockchain for the transfer of
existing currencies that are both readily accepted by
mainstream consumers and are not subject to
damaging volatility: tokens of value that are simply
digital equivalents of regular money."

So what you are basically doing is making the developers rich in hopes that more hype will inflate the price and you get rich at the same time.

Don't get me wrong, the idea is good, but do not think you will get rich because everybody will need these tokens to use a private blockchain, it's just not gonna happen. What business will ever buy a Blockchain as a Service if they have to pay billions in tokens to acquire one? NONE! That's why they don't have to use tokens!
