I thought once it was open sourced anybody could clone it, make their changes, and put out an api.
If the community uses that api, stinc is out.
Steemworld allows the user to choose any api, maybe busy and steempeak could, too.

A fork giving stake to any that aren't attached to the bid bot tar baby, and had business people running things rather than nice hair, doubles most user's wages here.
Not many people turn down free money.
Look at bsv.
