RE: Sold a Car for STEEM!!! Anyone Accepting Steem as Payment?

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

Smart move mate, I think steem will get back up high and you will have made a killer profit on a 800 dollar car.
@toyoko piss off!
btw. the dude who bought a pizza made a killer loss, not a killer profit.
I think you mean the pizzaplace who sold a pizza for loads of bts.
edit: Sorry for double comment dude, was meaning to edit but my bad.

Sort:  

Shit happens...lol. Not problem with the double post.

Oh I know it's kind of the reverse on the pizza thing, but was more thinking about the way it happened. Someone buys today with low value and later the value goes sky high. Think most people know about that story so it was fitting. Heck can you imagine if I had sold this back when steem was 7c? Honestly feel we all will be looking back saying I wish I had bought more when it was 80c!

Yeah that was sick, I dont know exactly how much it was, but I think someone got really depressed!
imagine being that lucky now, I think we are going to see that here on steem again as well (not as much as the pizza dude though).
I personally think steemit is way ahead of it's time, because when I tell people to google steemit and find out what it is, noone seems to really care about what they find or think it sounds to good to be true and almost all of them think it is a scam and keep asking where the money comes from and stuff.
It might take a few years but when the masses will finally realize the enormous potential that a decantralized self governed social media platform backed by a virtual currency has I think it will usher in a whole new era for steemit and elevating the steem and sbd to whole new heights.
So cross your fingers, pray, suck your thumb, go find yourself a 4leaf clover or whatever you prefer and hope it happens!

(not as much as the pizza dude though).
Don't crush my dreams...lmao Completely agree there isn't room for that type of growth.

People don't realize that money is created out of thin air each day by banks and corporations. They accept this as normal even though they have no clue it happens. But because crypto is new they assume it's a scam

And the banksters create unlimited amounts of new fiat currency all the time!

Understand that every time you use a credit card you actually pull new currency into existence. That money you spent did not come from Bank of Asses bank account, it came from their line of credit.

So stop using your CC to buy coffee and other BS. It doesn't matter if you pay it off each month. The new currency has already been pulled into existence.

If you 🅤🅢🅔 🅒🅐🅢🅗 🅞🅡 🅒🅡🅨🅟🅣🅞 you will be sticking it to the banksters.

Its not really a loss or a gain, something is worth what its worth at the time you pay for it. If you paid 100 Bitcoins for a PIzza when 100 Bitcoins were worth $10 you didn't lose you got your pizza. Mentally however people feel like they are kicking themselvs for spending that crypto

Yes that is true, but I still think it was a good trade (I firmly believe that the car he sold for 800 steem (600usd) will defintly be worth 3k+ in a few months.
Apart from that, if he wanted to get rid of his car and gain steem, If he traveled the most used road (changing usd for w/e coin and later trade those for steem) he would have had to pay a lot of fees.
In his trade now he paid 0 fees, so it still is a gain. (in my opinion).
He could only make this trade because he knew someone who wanted to buy a car with steem (i can tell you those peopel are hard to find.
