The Greens’ Steem Bank (@thegreensbank) was created to ease Cameroonian steemians' Steem to BTC to CFAF (Local currency) transactions as well as reduce the cost of the withdrawals by 20 -75%.
It costs 0.0005BTC to withdraw Steem via @poloniex but with @thegreens Steem Bank, Cameroonian Steemians can now get instant cash payments in CFAF via MTN Momo for their Steem/SBD at a reduced cost i.e. 20 - 75% of 0.0005BTC.

0.0005BTC currently range between $30 - $34 and USD value increases with the increase in the price of BTC and vice versa
The principal objectives of the bank are;

1. To ease Steem/SBD - CFAF transactions for Cameroonian Steemians
2. To reduce the Steem/SBD withdrawal cost for Cameroonian Steemians
3. To minimize the losses incurred during Steem/SBD withdrawal transactions e.g. A lot of people have made mistakes and sent SBD to Poloniex or mistakes with BTC Wallets.
4. To reduce the time taken and worries associated with completing a Steem/SBD to CFAF transaction e.g. Sometimes it takes hours or days for a BTC confirmation to be complete or there may be network issues but with the bank, once Steem/SBD is deposited, the MTN Momo is credited.
5. To reduce or stop the power down of Cameroonian steemians’ Steemit accounts via the provision of very low interest Steem loans (10 -13% Interest rates). We believe, if we give Cameroonian steemians loans, they will reduce the rate at which they power down their accounts.
6. To give Steem trading and investment alerts/advice to Cameroonian steemians
7. To guide and provide Cameroonian steemians with information on how they can better invest in Steem
