So, as expected - People are super-willing to invest into SteemPower, but then there is Bitcoin. Do I need to write a very long article about this problem or should I just end it right here with a statement: Steem & SteemPower needs to be accessible through other means of payment.
When Bitcoin becomes a problem
I love Bitcoin, it was the first crypto-currency that made me money, but I have listened to STEEM investors complaining about how hard it is to go between Bitcoin to get into STEEM and the customer is right - It is horribly hard and extremely risky to make an investment directly into STEEM/STEEMPOWER for normal internet-users when they have to go through Bitcoin first, it is what it is - Let´s make it EASY :)
Steemit investors are not like crypto-investors
Remember that our community is about 50/50 Male/Female - so already we can state that the steemit community and the investors they attract are ABSOLUTELY not like Crypto-Investors/Bagholders so let´s forget about that market and create an easier market where REAL MONEY can be exchanged for STEEM the super-simple-easy-to-do-way. If we are going to go to the moon - let´s go to the REAL MOON :)
Make it very very easy & legal for investors to invest
The solution is simply to get Steemit Inc. to sign a contract with a payment-processor so that we have that established. Have all the legal work done correctly and make sure the EULA is accepted. Then it will be super easy to just send people directly to Steemit.com to open account, type in card-details and POWER UP.
