RE: Can We Change The UI to Display Rewards in USD?
as it must be attributed a cost to keep doing this.
Not necessarily true. It is likely the case at present that the cost is borne by speculators and not the Steem network.
That's why I added the qualifier of this being an "acute" issue so to speak under certain market conditions. Overall, I think it will lead to less investment in and use of the Steem currency than if the focus of the community and speculators had been solely on it. It's simply an economic outflow I see. That doesn't mean that any particular user will think Steem or Steem use is too low.
But again, let's at least clarify through the user interfaces or similarly that it isn't a stable currency. We shouldn't expose risk averse users to high volatility without them even knowing it.
