Steem power. Why? To make people happy by given them good upvotes!

I'd rather have steem power.

Hey Abajnath, you are right. But you cannot buy Steem Power at Exchanges. You have only two options at exchanges, even if you want to come up with Steem Power at the end:

  1. option: buy STD, convert them to Steem and power up
  2. option: buy Steem and power up
    I would like to know which of the variants is the best one.
    thanks! :)

I have also written about this topic: https://steemit.com/steem/@smallstepschange/steem-vs-steem-dollar-both-are-down-7-15-at-the-moment-which-one-should-i-buy
Thanks for your answer. But why do you prefer Steem? Steem Dollar seems to be at an even greater discount.

SBD may be at a higher price but that’s the only thing it has going for it. Steem is projected to go higher than SBD. Steem also determines the price of the most powerful influential tool on Steemit, which is Steem Power. Steem is the back bone of the Steemit. SBD to me is really only a payment system between Steemers. Way more potential with Steem.

Yap I agree with Brandon SBD is only a transfer coin, that's way many bots for example do not take Steem as a payment coin.
