nice to see a carve-out for developers in the service provider definition |
| 11:34 |

there's some ambiguity about whether the operator of a smart contract is a service provider or a developer though. maybe that needs to be further distinguished. |

I'd like to see capital requirements and reporting requirements for service providers. codify proof of funds, why not? |
