Many of you have asked how I purchase my Steem Power. I personally use CoinBase to move my fiat (USD) into crypto currency, no matter what the crypto is that I'm buying. In today's video I will walk you through the process of purchasing Ethereum (or BTH, BTC, LTC, etc.) and exchanging that for Steem Power. As the crypto markets continue to drop I will continue to take advantage of this buying opportunity.

Thank you @brandonfrye for making a transfer to me for an upvote of 5.87% on this post! Half of your bid goes to @budgets which funds growth projects for Steem like our top 25 posts on Steem! The other half helps holders of Steem power earn about 60% APR on a delegation to me! For help, will you please visit https://jerrybanfield.com/contact/ because I check my discord server daily?

Curious to know, which exchanges you prefer other than Coinbase? I currently use Coinbase and Binance but I hate having my crypto sitting on these centralized systems.

Binance is a good one. I also have an account with Cryptopia (not a fan of their shenanigans), Kucoin, and a couple others. I would say that I use Binance more than any for purchasing new cryptos.

Brilliant and again, another much needed explanation for newer Steemians.
I'm watching your videos and buying Steem Power....Because I'm addicted and need help! But seriously, I follow the exact same procedure. It's the easiest for me as well being in Canada. Our 'exchanges' are horrible here....So as much as Coinbase drove me nuts in December....It's the easiest to use to buy via fiat and than transfer over here.

Thanks @jongolson, yeah I wish there were some better CoinBase alternatives (and a way to avoid all the fees) but it's really the best right now. If you haven't already, check out GDAX which is basically CoinBase and has less fees for transferring. It's just CoinBase without the pretty UI.

Another really good video for the masses of newbies like me. Thank you for it.
I did a bit yesterday with coinbase to open ledger for bitshares. It worked slick enough, even though my timing just stinks :) Coinbase now charges $13 for any BTC transaction. Seems high to me, but it is much faster now that they have the fee.
Anyway, thanks again.

Yes, your right, coinbase is holding two transfers for 7 days before i can buy Ethreum, and bitcoin, but they gave me a $50 Limit on my debt card? dont know why, Id buy more Steem Power myself, but like you said they limit you at first...until when?
Excellent Steem On information as always.

Hey @brandonfrye great tutorial. Getting started with crypto can be overwhelming when you realize all the steps you have to go through to turn dollars into crypto. You’re tips and tricks really help the newbie not get burned in the early stages of investing.
Maybe you’ve addressed this somewhere else, but I noticed steam power and steam dollars are near the same price USD. What is the compelling reason to buy power over dollars right now? If you only wanted to spend a small amount (<$100) would you see mug benefit in buying steam power?

Are Steem and Steempower conversions always linked? i.e. when steem price goes up or down does steempower go up or down in value accordingly? is there a fee when converting back and forth from steem to steempower and vice versa?

Wow! Very helpful indeed! And a good time to buy more steempower as well while everything is on the low. I may consider buying some soon with Litecoin. :) Upvoted! Feel free to check my blogs to see if there is anything I made that interest you.^^

Thanks as always @lukebrn for your support. As you can see, I'm giving Dtube another go lol. I'm really considering moving completely over to d.tube now. I use Screencast-o-matic with my builtin Macbook Pro camera for my videos and only use iMovie for the editing. I have used Adobe Premiere in the past for more production-type videos, but it's much more software than I currently need. So I try and keep it as simple as possible.

Oh yeah, forgot about the mic lol. I have been using my iPhone headphones with builtin mic. Sounds like a cheap way of doing things but honestly the audio comes out really good. You'll see in my videos that I always have the headphones in. That's my trick :)
