RE: How to improve the Steemmonsters reward system? (Poll + Small Giveaway #3)

in #dpoll7 years ago

I still have faith in Steem. Not the blogging aspect but the blockchain generally. So I'm hoping BTC will drop a bit again and then I'll buy some more.

I'm confused.... You'll buy BTC or Steem?

Or you buy BTC to buy Steem with?

Last case scenario, isn't BTC like the worst option to buy other crypto with? (It used to be like that, but since I have found out I can buy Steem straight from fiat, I haven't checked anymore)

Sort:  

I use BTC to buy Steem because it worked out a better deal than buying Euros first. You can't buy directly with Sterling. But I haven't checked that recently.

I won't use BTC again though because it takes so long. I bought a bit this morning and more than 8 hours later I'm still waiting for it to show up in Blocktrades.

Last time I used LTC but the price was holding better than BTC this morning. But, knowing me, I probably got the maths wrong anyway and . . . I learned today that the fees are more expensive than for LTC or ETH. I had no idea. I thought the were all the same.

All of this is still a minefield for me. Trading of any kind really isn't my game.

If only I could buy Steem with Sterling, things would be so much easier.

I learned today that the fees are more expensive than for LTC or ETH. I had no idea. I thought the were all the same.

That was why I asked. BTC is like the slowest and most expensive way to go. But then again... I only know because I've messed around with it in the past.

I know being able to buy steem with Euros has made life a lot easier... maybe too easy. Since I don't have to go through all the hassle of exchanging anymore, i've been spending way too much 😉
