RE: Crypto, Trading and Steem: Not Available in Your Region...
Not sure, but I think the high minimum from simpleswap might be due to competition with high volumes of trading activity that are being done to provide liquidity on the internal SBD <-> STEEM markets.
I have used probit. Other exchanges that I haven't tried but have STEEM and might be accessible from the US include: stealthex, MEXC, and UPBIT.
But yeah, all in all, general exchange accessibility has really declined in recent years. Not good for a country that's supposed to be a tech and business leader.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I do like SimpleSwap, and will likely continue to use them. The higher limits are probably more of an issue for our friends in places like Venezuela, Nigeria, Aceh and others where they are more dependent on their rewards to make day-to-day ends meet.
Probit is a possible... they don't outright forbid US users. MEXC and Upbit are not available. Stealthex looks promising, but seems to have even higher minimums. But no worries.
It all makes me think about how Steemit might be better served to have a PR team than a marketing team... someone who's in the ear of every exchange and swap service, and every crypto news outlet, constantly beating on doors and sharing news. Has anyone claimed the "project updates/news" space on services like CMC and CoinGecko? Seems to me visibility can be increased with options that don't cost money so much as sweat equity.
