Steemit How-To: Sell Steem Dollars via Poloniex [Newbie Friendly]

in steemit •  8 years ago  (edited)

In this short tutorial, I will show you how to deposit $D and sell it for Bitcoin on Poloniex.

Setup

Send Steem Dollars

  • Search for Steem and Click Deposit

Transfer

  • Go To your Steemit Wallet

  • Click on Steem Dollars and click Transfer

Okay, we need to move back to our Poloniex Deposit.

In order to deposit, we need Memo and Deposit Address

  • Copy&Paste the Memo

To your Steemit Wallet Transfer

  • Back to Poloniex - collect the deposit address

  • Copy&Paste Deposit Address to your Steemit Wallet Transfer

  • Insert the Amount you want to send and click Transfer

Wait 10 Minutes until Poloniex registered your Transaction and added it to your account

Trade Steem Dollar for Bitcoin

Now to the tricky part. You have to read the liquidity. In this example, I want to sell 400 Steem Dollar immediately, means I have to check current buy orders and how much they're buying.

The first three buy orders are combined more than 400 Steem Dollar, so I click on the 3rd Price (arrow)

  • Sell your Steem Dollar

If you followed as explained above, only thing left to do is inserting the Amount of Steem Dollar you want to sell and Click Sell

That's it!

Please do not hesitate to ask and let me know if I missed a step!

Thanks for this guide. Next up the Bittrex guide for the same. This seems so basic to many early steemians who came from other crypocurrencies, but any newb on steem is not going to have any familiarity with any of this. Easy to use, well laid out guides like this are a great resource.

thanks for your feedback. I don't think bittrex is that important, poloniex is much bigger after all.

Bigger doesn't matter in this case. @Bittrex almost benefits from being MUCH easier to join and more permissive about who they let in in a good way. Noobs don't need Polo's liquidity, they'll be selling in drips and drabs.

Noob guide, just what I was looking for!!! Ta much

thanks for your feedback! :)

As Good as for Dummies Guides
Needed HERE PLEASE 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈

Thanks - the tech writer in me really wants to reorder this slightly.

At Poloniex, go to Steem Dollars and click Deposit
Copy the Steem Dollars memo #
Go to Steem Wallet / Transfer
Paste the memo
Then, back to Poloniex to get the deposit address
(Otherwise, you're returning twice to Poloniex when you only need to return once)
This should make it clear that you're pasting the deposit address in the To field, not typing "Poloniex" in the To field as seen here.
(Newbies, remember!)
Paste the deposit address

One little tip, please check the (24hour) Volume of the SBD on Poloniex fist before you transfer your money to it. With low trading volumes it can be quite hard and tricky to get your SBD sold or to get them for the price you want.

You have answer many questions i had, Thank for posting

Great How to do post :)
If a guy dont understand this, then i dont know hehe.
Tanks :)

thanks for your feedback!

Hi there. What if poloneix does not cater to my country? Any other alternatives that you can propose? :)

That should not be a problem. Poloniex is a Digital Currency exchange open for every country. You will have to find a local Bitcoin Exchange to cash out your Bitcoin into local fiat currency. There are also other exchanges you can use.

what about bittrex?

does polo restricted in some country? I never heard it

me neither though

very helpful, thank you :)
