As many of you guys already know, good management plus innovation and design thinking strategy are principles that help an organization´s viability in the short and long run. In my former blog post, I indicated : Why Steemit should kick the Ass of Major exchanges / Trading Platform like Poloniex and Start its Own see here . This is because of issues we steemians constantly have with trading platform like Poloniex with regard to Steem and SBD which was raise by some members : @barrydutton , @teamsteem , @fyrstikken and @krnel (to mention just few) and subsequent advice was given.
In light of this aforementioned issue and the need to add revenue stream to steem ecosystem, I am convinced that management of steem should think of ways to incorporate steem debit card -which will help members easily spend their steem or steem dollars without going to a third party. If done prudently, this will certainly move the playing field to our advantage and subsequently, add a solid revenue stream to steem ecosystem. Some great Steemians , : @infovore , @ausbitbank , @donkeypong , @gtg, @timcliff , @blueorgy and @stephenkendal (to mention just few) have written extensively on the power of steem ecosystem and its growing member base and the need to even innovate further and tap into the greatness of steem ecosystem. This should not be ignored, rather the debate should begin.
Why steem debit card will be great for all
- Members being able to access their money worldwide
- Fast and less stress because no need to login to the internet to access funds
- Best security due to steem solid blockchain technology
- There are many content creatures in steem ecosystem so it makes perfect sense
- The stability of SBD which moves in tandem with USD makes it an awesome fit
- Ability to use Steem debit card to buy steem directly from the internal market , thus leading to faster and cheaper transaction
I do understand that steem is still on its infancy (still on beta) and all these ideas might sound like a big noise. Moreover, some debit card providers ( Payza , Bitwala ) have steem in their debit card service- however just like Poloniex et al , there are limitations to these providers and having our own debit card will be a game changer. Importantly, I am not saying that it should be done now, rather let the conceptualization begin. Dreaming big , having great ideas and prudent implementation are what makes an innovative and successful company.
Note: this can even be done via Joint venture (JV) , Partnership or even M&A ....

Soooo easy a bird can do it !!!! Hahahaha

Do you trust steem and bitcoin? Pls click here and read : Why are Ignorant people Calling Steem & Bitcoin A Ponzi Scheme
Totally agree. The current system holds Steem back from acting as a full currency and it has this amazing potential that at the moment is restricted by reliance on unstable 3rd parties. Steem will rocket and steemit will flourish with an innovation like this! Great post.

While I upvoted this post and like the idea of having a Steem debit card, there's some perspective that I have and would like to add here.
Steem is the main currency of Steemit Inc. If Steemit provide a debit card, liquidity of Steem will increase and people would easily cash out.
However, what the easy liquidity will do is to reduce the number of Steem on the blockchain in an uncontrolled fashion. Eventually, it would be theoratically possible to convert every Steem to fiat money through the debit card.
There would be another issue too; massive powering down by Steem Power holders to have liquid Steem available for use via Steem debit card.
I do not think that this scenario will be suitable for the Steem ecosystem. I wonder how Steemit Inc. (@ned, @dan, @dantheman) and Steem witnesses like @ausbitbank, @timcliff, @good-karma, @blueorgy, @aggroed and many more think about the issue. It would be interesting to know about their opinion on the matter.
What I do want (and it won't leak Steem out) is the ability to purchase Steem directly from the internal market using Debit/Credit cards. It would make it easier to invest in Steem and Steem Power. Buying Bitcoin, then trading Bitcoin for Steem, then sending Steem to Steemit wallet and then powering up is such a long and complicated process.
Having a Steem debit card with some limitation (daily, weekly, monthly limits on withdrawals) is a viable idea and I would love to have that two-way convenience of spending and buying Steem via a Steem debit card.

Well creating a way buy STEEM directly from the internal Market would also do the reverse , creating a quick way to sell STEEM and causing that liquid issue you spoke of. 😵

For Steem to be sold from the internal market, is it compulsory that 'that' Steem comes from Steemians? People shouldn't be able to sell their Steem for fiat in the internal market in my suggestion. The Steem which would be made available for purchase should be allocated separately by Steemit Inc. Otherwise, selling will surely cause the issue you mentioned.

@blueorgy @charles1
Good point about causing too much liquidity...
What about an internal market where STEEMIT members can 'sell' up to $25 steem per week. But these sells can only be sold internally to other steemit members? I would do that. Well.....I would buy STEEM/STEEMPOWER. I would have bought already 2-3 times at $25 each/purchase. The question would be how to handle my fiat cash to get it into the Steemit market.
Anyway, I like discussing ideas that can lead to great innovations!!

Great stuff, @charles1! I'm convinced that all these applications will come. There are infinite possibilities to scale the idea of Steem/Steemit. Another example is the decentralized video hosting which has been perfectly picked up by @furion launching Viewly.
I'm totally sure that we're going to pay with a Steem Card one day. It's a logial consequence of the ongoing progress.
All these exchange platforms have a lot of vulnerability issues. It doesn't only happen to Poloniex. Last week Bittrex had frozen all BTC withdrawals and deposits for a couple of days. It feels horrible if you can't access your own money.
Plus the payment sector is promising for another reason: affilliate business.
Exciiiiiiting times to come! :)

@charles1 I must say that I like the direction that this conversation is going, but I have to agree that a Steem debit card may not be the best use of the developers time or the best thing for the platform. I as a person invested in Steem want to see the platform grow and more people holding into Steem so that it drives up the price (just being honest). A debit card in my opinion would create a situation where people are spending Steem like they would a regular currency. When I think of Steem I want it to be looked at as something that you want to hold and cannot get enough of and that you should be happy to have some. If people are spending it like fiat currency then some may see the value in it, but I see it differently. I want Steem to be looked at as a rare commodity not so much as a currencies to be compared to everything else out there that already exists. Just my opinion!
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Your opinion is very solid and welcomed...however remember that in steem ecosystem there are steem , steem dollars and steem power. I was refering the steem dollars which people will always spend as most people dont power all up. Most people convert their SBD to bitcoin and spend it via bitcoin debit card so having our own platform and debit card might add value to the ecosystem and thus increase the value of steem.
In life, smart people will always know the power of long term investment and no matter what you do, others will spend all their earned coin. Do you know that some people here started last year when steem was very cheap and still they are under 500 steem power? haha . Thanks for your comment

@charles1 if it is just SBD then that is a slightly different scenario. However, to be honest I still do not think that I would be comfortable being that people could just transfer then Steem to SBD where it could be used. Just my opinion, but this is a good topic and it is good to see everyone's thought process on it.

Steem should never ever ever do this.
You see, right now steem is funny money. It doesn't exist, its not real.
And so Steem inc can get away with a lot of things.
As soon as it is tradeable for US$ in any shape or form, then what Steem Inc is doing is being a bank, and then they have to follow ALL of those regulations. And they are already in violation of many.
So, to do what you suggested is to kill Steem inc.
Its a political and legal nightmare. Don't go there.
