We ran out of resource credits yesterday due to a "series of unfortunate events" and that caused our ability to deliver Steem, SBD, delegations, and Steem account creations to be unreliable at best during that time. We added a warning on our site about it so that users would be notified that while we could accept Steem buys, our delivery of Steem-related outputs would be delayed until Monday.
But I'm happy to report that diligent efforts yesterday and today by our dev team enabled us to cut down that time considerably: we've successfully re-processed the failed output transactions at this point in time and we're back to full normal operation.
As a side note: A shout-out to @themarkymark who reported one minor bug in RC calculations for the current version of steemd code that enabled us to shave about 6 or 8 hours off our RC recovery time (and to the guy who told him about it, @matt-a I believe).
Glad to hear. This service is wonderful!

Prices for Steem vary widely across the net right now, because the exchanges (with the possible exception of gopax) haven't yet got their Steem wallets working again after the hard fork.
Our site analyzes those prices to determine what price to use, so we've had to make choices about which price we trust most during this disruptive period. We are using a price that seems to be the "consensus" price across the exchanges right now and it's on the low side of the total range.
Coinmarketcap is estimating considerably higher because it is mostly using Huobi's price (because they report the highest volume).
Long story short: if you agree with coinmarketcap's price, you should buy from us because we're selling it lower than coinmarketcap's price (and we can actually deliver the Steem, which few if any exchanges can do right now), so it's a great deal by that view.
On the other hand, if you want to sell your Steem, you might want to wait until you can transfer it to Huobi instead of selling it to us now, but I wouldn't place any bets on the prices being the same by the time they re-enable their deposits.

@blocktrades If I understand correctly, buying or selling steem with blocktrades, is a better option then the internal market?
Could you please confirm that trading with blocktrades is handled by you on an external exchange and not the internal market? So there is real price discovery.
If this is the case, I will switch to blocktrades for swapping SBD -> STEEM and STEEM -> SBD.
Thank you for your reply.

When you trade with us, you're trading directly with us, but we monitor prices on both exchanges and the internal market and our software selectively uses prices from all it's potential sources. I'm not currently following prices on the internal market, so I can't say if it's better or worse than the price on exchanges (the prices change too often for me to try to keep up with such things manually, we leave it to the software).
My best suggestion is to make the comparison using our price estimator versus the internal market price and see what gives you the best deal at any given time.

STEEM wallets on other exchanges have been down a full week before the fork. It had nothing to do with the fork.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Perhaps surprisingly, it had everything to do with the fork. The 12-hour outage of the Steem blockchain was caused by a bug in the code for HF 20 that caused some of the HF 20 rules to start too early (i.e. before the fork was supposed to happen). And this is what caused most of the exchange wallets to stop functioning. Since then, the exchanges have been trying to play catch up, in order to get functioning wallets.

When accounts like @blocktrades with such Steem invested in Steem Power runs out of Resource Credits.. it once again tells us just how screwed up this hardfork actually is.

The problem we ran into was a bit unusual and not likely to affect most Steem users. We were claiming some of the "free account credits" using a 0.20.4 wallet and also watching our RC amount on steemed (which was running 0.20.5 but apparently hadn't fully replayed). So both were reporting the wrong amount of RC being used for the transaction (and it is a super-expensive transaction that costs far more RC than any other transaction). The other issue was that some witness outside of the top 20 were still running older versions of steemd that allowed these transactions thru, which allowed our RC to go negative. Fortunately, we stopped it before it went too far negative.

So I usually used exchanges to convert steem into other currencies, but with the exchanges being down and me needing to pay my bill I guess I'll be using blocktrades right now.
But before I do: Is there someone who can confirm right now that if I send Steem to blocktrades I will get for example BTC in a reasonable amount of time? And ideally, tell me what roughly will be that reasonable amount of time?
Thanks to anyone answering :)

The warning was not present when I purchased Steem. The transaction page showed the transaction as complete, but when the funds did not appear I figured it was because of my new account's lack of VP. Yesterday your site showed the warning, confirming what I suspected. Thanks for being reliable.

Yes, we didn't realize right away that we were out of RC because steemd.com wasn't yet reporting correct RC values (it was reporting we still had about 40% available) and because some non-top 20 witnesses were still letting transactions through without verifying RC. The RC system doesn't require consensus, so if a producing node puts a transaction into the blockchain, the other nodes will accept the transaction even if their own internal calculations show that the transactor didn't have enough RC.

No, you do not get back your Steem or SBD after the delegation is done. You pay for renting the delegation for a certain amount of time.

How were you able to make transfers when you had a negative RC? :O
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Fortunately some witnesses were still letting transactions through without verifying the transactor had sufficient RC. The RC system doesn't require consensus, so if a producing node puts a transaction into the blockchain, the other nodes will accept the transaction even if their own internal calculations show that the transactor didn't have enough RC.
This enabled us to still do some Steem transactions, although at first only somewhat on an unreliable basis. We then increased the expiration time on our wallet transactions so that our transactions would last long enough to get included by one of those witnesses as a stopgap measure until we recovered enough RC (and that also allowed us to take advantage of the first-time power-down bug to get a bit more RC a bit quicker). Needless to say, we had a busy night yesterday.

Blocktrades the solution so that the new accounts can have more actions and interactions on the platform, thanks to its delegation system for 90 days, personally I will be talking about this as the solution to new users, as they grow little by little , I hope the rc recover soon. With a minimum investment can be achieved more than 50 sp, which is what everyone begins to say that accounts have more freedom to publish.

You can buy it from our site https://blocktrades.us using most common cryptocurrencies such as btc, ltc, eth, doge, etc.
If you don't have any crypto, you can buy it from an exchange like coinbase, then sell it for Steem Power on our site.

Hi @blocktrades, i just want to highlight the issue on your SP delegation service. See the screenshots below:
After few minutes...
I did purchase an SP delegation (worth 5 steem), it worked well at the first few minutes. And then it was undelegated after few minutes. Maybe it was just a glitch.
Any possible explanation for this? And what could be the solution?
Pls look into it as it might happen to others also.
Thanks!

Hi, your account was one of several that got double-delegated as part of a fix for another issue (i.e. you temporarily received twice as much as your delegation purchase was for). The undelegation you're seeing is where we detected the double delegation and restored the delegation amount to the proper value.

At first, I thought it was because of your RC's situation. Which look like totally drained by the way even with the amount of SP you have.
