in Newcomers' Community3 years ago (edited)

Bienvenu mes amis. Welcome to another one of my exciting posts. I hope you enjoy today's topic. In this post, we're going to talk about Steemscan.com, an amazing tool design and implemented by @futureshock and @roadofrich, and used for many things by blockchainers to easily exchange/convert steems among themselves. It involves three main cryptocurrencies, including USDT, TRX and BTC without the use of KYC verification.
The steemscan platform also contains details about the activities of crypto users on the platform. The activities include transfers, claim rewards, votes, etc.

Information Shown Under Witnesses Section And Steps To Vote A Witness

The witness portion displays all steem witnesses, and allows people to easily vote whoever they want. A steem witness is anyone who is powered with votes on the steemit platform that allows them to be able to produce blocks. Hence, a block builder is refered to as a witness or a miner.

Steps To Vote A Witness

  • Go to the menu option and click on it

What Is DApps And Mention 3 DApps You Have Already Used Or May Use In Future As Per Your Interest

DApps basically refers to Decentralized Applications that operate/function on blockchains such as the steem blockchain. They each have their various functions, with their creators, links and users.

Some of the DApps I've used already are Steemit and Steemworld.

One that I think I'll so much use in the near future is DTube. DTube actually allows users to share and comment on videos and the likes. I love making videos and watching as well. Hopefully it'll be a great place for me considering the fact that it also involves cryptocurrencies.

How To Use "Quick-Convert" and What Is The Fee Charged For Different Steem Amounts For Withdrawal

Quick-Convert is an operation tool used to convert steems into any of the three cryptocurrencies acceptable on steemscan.ie; USDT, TRX and BTC.

To use Quick-Convert, move to the menu option and click on it. A drop down appears as indicated in the image below. Click on Quick-Convert.

Enter the amount of steem you wish to convert in the required section.eg 20 and then click on your preferred currency.
Also make sure to input the right USDT withdrawal address.

From my transaction process so far, it is apparent if I want to convert 20 steems, I will receive 9.42776942 USDT at a fee of 1.11660989 USDT. and if I also want to convert 50 steems, I'll receive 26.919255322 USDT at a 1.11660989 USDT fee.
