So, I'm all about seeing Steem get into the world at large. Not just the crypto land, but also into the terrestrial world as well. I'm very keen on the idea that I can live, work, and function off of crypto. I essentially believe the world is run by immoral banksters, and they operate the Federal Reserve. Every time I use a dollar I give it value, and I would prefer alternatives. Another one arrived today.
@steemgiftcards
Just launched their account and their website.
I feel an obligation to try these things
I'm getting witness rewards. I should risk some of those to test things out to help the ecosystem. So, that's what I did. I purchased a $100 amazon gift card. It had $9.95 in fees. At the time I paid 21.8SBD.
I paid using Steem connect. Then nothing happened right away.
A few minutes later
I got confirmation from them by email-
and a few minutes after that I got the actual giftcard.
I passed it along to muh wife, and now we have $100 more sitting in an Amazon account. Seems like an excellent way to turn Steem into tangible goods with just a few clicks.
Nice job
