The Steemit Shop and the use of SBD as a payment method

in steemit •  7 years ago 

I do not know about you but I am one of those who think that the success and normalization of the use of cryptocurrencies must pass through their applicability as normal currency.
So, for me, it is very good news when an online store, hotel, travel agency, real estate agency etc ... announce the acceptance of cryptocurrency as a mean of payment.

From time to time I used to search at the internet for services and products that can be purchased directly using our cryptos.

So, for instance, not long ago a prestigious hotel in Barcelona announced that it would accept CARDANO as a mean of payment, or for example, many Swiss universities accepted BITCOIN for the payment of the registration fee to their courses, degrees and masters.

UK's Theater Direct, the British theater ticket purchase service, allows its users to enjoy the best works of the West End by buying with bitcoins.

Also On-line travel agencies such as Destinia or Expedia give the possibility to their customers to purchase their trip paying with bitcoins.

As well, written recently by @beiker at "The Japanese company Rakuten, also known as the 'Japanese Amazon' just announced: RAKUTEN COIN" that could also indicate a new crypto to be used as a payment method at their website.

These are good examples of the real applicability of cryptocurrencies and I think, they are good promoters of their use, much more than the reading of thousands of articles about blockchain, crypto-technology and white-papers.

That's why I don't fully understand why the owners and developers of The Steemit Shop do not use SBD as a method of payment...or am I wrong?


The Steemit Shop could become a good attraction to the Steem Universe just by offering/selling more stuff and services to buy accepting also SBD.

Also would be easier for steemians, willing to promote Steem and Steemit, to get some merchandising stuff without having to trade first their SBD to USD in order to buy them.

Think about it!
