Hi Steemians!! Today, I'm excited to announce that my shift card finally arrived in the mail! I was told it would take 5-10 business days for it to arrive and in fact it took 13, but other than that, I'm very satisfied. The card is ready to be used immediately after activation and I already made a purchase with it. It was quite effortless actually (aside from the blood, sweat and tears I pour into my blog)!
What is a shift card? It's a debit card. You load crypto on to it through blocktrades and coinbase.com and turn your sbd into spendable currency!! It's accepted everywhere Visa is! Here's my noob tutorial. https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@snowpea/so-you-made-some-sbd-what-next-the-shift-debit-card I call it a noob tutorial because I had just figured the whole thing out using my smartphone, and I was so thrilled, that I just had to show others how to do it. Granted, you may want to wait, as sbd is only being sold for a little over $3, then again, it may continue to lose value. Hard to say, really.
If you have any questions, ask me! Take care and have a great evening!
Love, snowpea ❤
Be careful! It makes makes it all-to-easy to blow your BTC on steak and lobster dinners. If I had all those steak and lobsters back in the form of the spent BTC, I could have a Lambo made out of steak and lobsters!
I was going to make a parody film of "Living on Bitcoin." Where I had a regular day, but did something stupid like try to buy drugs and prostitutes

I am going to have to look into the Shift card for myself. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this cryptocurrency thing. It would be great to have a convenient way to spend my money I earn here though!

This is damn cool! Crypto is being applied in the 'normal' world!
This is what mainstream needs to know, that you can really actually use it

I guess not. 😕 From what I can gather not even all the states are eligible yet.
