can we alternate the ui to show rewards in usd?

in abridged •  7 years ago 

currently, the ui displays rewards in steem backed greenback (sbd), which is deceptively low as the foreign money, which is supposed to be pegged to the usd, is currently buying and selling at over 7x that quantity.

what this means in practice is that all posts that have decided on to receive their payout as 50%/50% have become kind of 5x the quantity marketed!

one of the most appealing tendencies of the steem blockchain is its capability to transform better fees quick into greater fee with the aid of attracting extra customers thru successfully showing higher rewards on steemit. however this does not work if the rewards displayed grossly underneath market it their actual fee to the average character who stumbles onto the web page wondering it is usd.

right now, we are essentially advertising for process openings at a income it is best 1/5 of what we're genuinely going to pay them. until those new content material creators also are going to assist us smuggle heroin across the border, this is stupid.

easy answer

allow's simply exchange the the front stop show to mirror rewards in terms of their usd cost in preference to sbd.
now, my guess is a few devs are going to point out that this is not as trivial because it sounds because that allows you to do this they may want to rewrite the source code of the blockchain and reboot the internet and build a flux capacitor etc. i do need to strain that this is fairly vital in terms of onboarding and definitely enables the long time cost of steem.

i comprehend that there are a few issues round sbd and its viability within the future, however in the intervening time developing with a manner of really displaying a notably updated usd price on rewards shouldn't be too tough. right now, the displayed praise is devious and misleading to our combined detriment!

if we display rewards in phrases of usd, it's going to mirror their better value and the whole surroundings will stand to advantage whenever sbd receives pumped and dumped more difficult than a broken condom.

tell every body approximately steem

the lowest line is steem can pay nicely, and it's very a great deal in all people's hobbies to now not under constitute that by way of five fold. within the interim, tell everyone about it.
you already know those posts on trending? properly they're certainly getting $1000-$3000! and people posts on warm? properly they're getting $one hundred-$500! humans must recognise this and spread the word so more will be a part of steemit.

hell, you may inform them that each new join up receives a unfastened hand task from dan, concern to his consent, for all i deliver a shit. now i recognise it really is a little redundant as 'a loose hand task from dan, situation to his consent' is technically implied in each moment of lifestyles, so whilst now not insightful, it has the gain of being actual.

anyway, tell all people that steem is higher than you suspect!
