I wish there was better options than bittrex or poloniex to use to transfer Steem. I like options like OpenBazaar and Peerhub where users can exchange goods and services.

But being realistic, some people are here working hard to literally make rent with blogging posts and so right now the easiest way to get that crypto to fiat is those big corps like Bittrix or Poloniex.

I highly suggest people use http://Bitsquare.io .. decentralized is the way to go!

Thank you for your polite replies btw, sorry for bot accusation, but I mean, it seemed as such.
