Instead of accepting feeless, instant transactions with Steem or Steem Dollars!!
These guys are really crazy... who on earth pays their coffee with real BTC?? Bitcoin Cash BCH ok... but BTC???

This starts to really worry me...

Are they stupid.?...if network will congested and transaction takes 1 day in confirmation ..what will they do??...No one is going to pay 50$ transaction fees..

mexbit (60) 7 years ago

I think they only wanted some free publicity... Perhaps they have not even a POS for that..

cutiepie (58) 7 years ago

even if some one would care of transaction fees i think its amazing to use steem as a main stream payments

mexbit (60) 7 years ago

We are still far from it... we should really do the ATMs and exchanges like Shapeshiftio as soon as possible..

Must be some idiots who dont understand finance.

I think they wanted the free publicity... 90% of people investing right now in Bitcoin I think are not very enlightened... ;)

Bitcoin does have a lot more popularity maybe that's why. Steem needs to start trying to market itself a lot more if it wants to be picked up by mainstream media. Upvoted!

mexbit (60) 7 years ago

One step would be to have Steem on ATMs and Debit Cards... I wrote an article about that... they could give those implementing companies 50,000 USD or whatever in Steem if they did that... it would be worth the money...

Woohoo, what's a crazy news. They seriously didn't realize BTC huge TX fees. So they charge massive TX fees.
Resteem your post @mexbit.

mexbit (60) 7 years ago

Someone should tell them that there are cryptos with 0 transaction fees.... like Steem...
Thanks for resteeming!

madushanka (74) 7 years ago (edited)

I didn't tell, require to charge 0 TX fees. I know need to charge some percentage them. But I told 50 is massive.
