Okay, question somehow in advance, because I am seeing your post after a while, unfortunately. My question for @andrarchy is:

How Steemit Inc addresses the account creation delay, because it is pretty hard for new users, especially traders to make themselves "addresses" as they do for example for Ethereum or almost any other major coin, in just a matter of seconds, buy for Steem it takes days before they are able to use their free accounts, which also require some personal information they may bot want to give away.

I am aware that hardfork 20 will take care of the account creation fee, but I am talking about a quicker solution which could be implemented before that, because nobody knows when HF 20 will take place.

What if on the Sign Up page we put an option of paid account creation, because very few new investors know about account creation services like @anonsteem, and for the big investors, the fee of 2 Steem is not a big deal at all, and they may be much more happier than creating their accounts in a couple of days and give away their phone number.

What does he say about this?

Thank you so much, @aggroed!

Great proposal ! Put in the start-up page on Condenser an option to BUY an account (with crypto, as on blocktrades for instance). There is one on busy.org (whose link to steemit.com is not necessarily apparent to newcomers), why not one in steemit.com ?
