I hope in the future there would be a way to exchange or buy/sell a steem using our local currency or USD directly to exchanges like binance. I just notice that its quite hard or complicated on buying a steem. You need to buy a BTC or ETH first then exchange your BTC/ETH to Steem then transfer it to your steem wallet or steemit acocunt.
For a people that want to invest on Steem that doesn't have a good background on technology. This is quite hard. That's one of the reason why the Steem coin is having a hard time to be on one of the mainstream cryptocurrency since it's really hard to buy or sell it.
I hope there would be a progress in the future for this problem. I know many steemers (steemit users) really like for this to happen.
