1. https://milagro.apache.org/

2. SEC & IRS will be a roadblock there, eventually.

3. I don't see why blockchain is necessary for that.

I fail to see why ethereum would be the only & best solution here for those cases. I just don't see anything special about it, at best its an unscalable and insecure medium given what we've seen in the past with DAO (now starting another one!) and subsequent editing of blockchain ledger (effectively signaling distributed consensus is not possible with profiteering mixed in).

Milagro is basically a poorly thought out copy of a federated blockchain system. I can't take it seriously as a technology, sorry.
