RE: Forget about Paypal. Steemdollars: The perfect 6-in-1 online currency.

in #steemit8 years ago

I agree with you @jholdsworthy but steemians like me who is living in philippines have problem with this because the peso wallet that I am using is deducting 20% of every transaction. Maybe there's a need to charge since they will be converting bitcoin to philippine peso but 20% is a pain in the ass. Im looking for other wallet that can be use in my county and has lesser charge. I would appreciate if you can give me advice.

What if you guys get a local economy going with bitcoin?

Do you know about Bitsquare ?

It may just be what you are looking for!

tl;dr: convert steemusd to bitcoin (poloniex, blocktrades, etc), then bitcoin to pesos with bitsquare (no fees).

I will check it @karnal and if bitsquare can be use easily in the philippines, it would be great.

For sure it can!

In the unlikely event you run into trouble, reach out to @manfredkarrer or visit the bitsquare forum, people are really friendly and helpful over there!

But essentially, as long as there are enough people participating (using Bitsquare over there), it will work!

Spread the word, it will solve the absurd 20% premium problem that you guys have.

Good luck, and prosper!
