RE: See How Easy It Is To Buy Steem Using Changelly - Step By Step How To Buy Steem
UPDATE: New Article Alert....Learn how to turn steem into steem dollars fast... https://steemit.com/steem/@binkley/how-to-trade-steem-for-steem-dollars-aka-sbd
There MUST be an easier way to buy Steem! Steemit cryptocurrency money exchanges
Rather than go through one or more third parties, why not buy Steem from Steemit.com, or Steem.com? Am I making any sense here??? Or am I being too simplistic here? Am I being an idiot for stating the obvious??
Buying through third parties is very discouraging and suspicious to most normal people.
The steem eco system could very easily set up there own e-commerce payment gateway. Why don't they?
Perhaps tere is strategic brand marketng reason to sell steem through third-party exchanges, istead of diect to customers..
Steemit doesn't convert fiat to Steem or Steem Power. This needs to be done somewhere. New people joining often do not have BTC, ETH, Or Litecoin. Which still is not available to be purchased directly from Steemit but is available to be purchased from blocktrades easily and many other exchanges sell Steem. But you first still have to get the country currency converted into digital dollars.
Maybe there is a marketing reason to go through third party distributors. The ease of use and their own white paper states they are trying to help people break into crypto currency. Which it does allow people to earn some small amounts of crypto and learn about crypto. Makes it hard to buy it though for new folks.
Changelly from time to time drops Steem purchases. We are thinking about offering Steem for sale on https://SteemThat.com in the near future.
