RE: Mind Your Votes! II - A guide to maximizing your curation rewards

in #curation7 years ago

I now have some Steem Dollars in my account and I want to convert that to Steem Power. When I attempt to do it, I'm presented with the following:

This throws me off and now I don't know what to do. Is it better to continue and wait the 3.5 days, or use the Internal Market? If Market, how? The link to the Market seems to want me to sell into bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. I'm lost and any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated. BTW, I'm not the only one with this problem, so another tutorial article is likely justified. ()

Sort:  

This is not related to curation, but please don't use the conversion function, as you'll lose money. This is because the Steem Dollar is currently overvalued at $1.80 or so. So, yes, you'll get a much better deal in the Internal Market. Or you could sell SBD at Poloniex or Bittrex and buy Steem from there if you want more liquidity. Instead of ~$1.50 which is what Steem is worth, you can buy Steem for SBD 0.80.

Sorry about being off topic. I thought that converting rewards (curated and otherwise) would be an extension of the same topic.

Thanks for the advice.
