Steemit is a bitshare app, just like ethereum is has it's apps. So please use Bitshares to exchange and support the Bitshares network.
My point is if you love Steemit you should support the backbone of the system Bitshares, if there was no Bitshares there would be no Steemit.
Simple download the bitshares open ledger wallet here https://openledger.info/
create a account eg. username (Steemit101-clonewarz) and a password and it is done
transfer by selecting Account tab and click on deposit.. all the detail are there ready to transfer you steem or steem dollars..
remember back up your wallet
Once one discovers bitshares there is a whole new world to discover of token and even the USD dollar, silver and gold.
Last step make a profit and buy more Steem...
