Now... I'm looking back. Stratis has just been a staking QT wallet, for most of this time. Like holding Blackcoin, but without all the hype/marketing. It seems like Chris just jumps on whatever bandwagon is fashionable, and claims Stratis will have that too.
Fro goodness sakes. Stratis is aiming to be a platform. A widely used platform. Why wouldn't they want add these features?

Do you imagine they want to build a platform and not have them?
The Breeze wallet is looking good - don't get me wrong. But the only value it gives to Strat is the fact you need Strat for masternodes - a function which seemed to be tagged on during the masternode craze started by PivX.
I don't think so. It has to do with tumblebit and providing anonimity
And now Chris is saying there'll be an identity function to rival Civic's... it all seems a bit too bold, but not in a good way.
Again, why would they not...
1) want this available for their customers
2) want to have the best one?
Doesn't it make sense for them to do it?

I get a sense that things are just being made up as they go along, and the value is driven by pure hype and promises.
Everytthing in crypto is driven by hopes and promises. This is an experiumental new technology. Stratis is one of the experiments. It might succeed it might not.
They signed up their first business. I think that was a great positive. There is little doubt that a blockchain can be a huge help in a business like fishing, where the chain of custody is so important
The fish thing... I'm undecided on. I guess it's a bit 'boring', and certainly doesn't align with the "we have all these great partnerships coming up!" hype. But it's better than nothing, I guess.
All successful endeavors start small...don't they?
How many other crypto coins have paying customer? Not many if any. Can you name one?
