yes... eagerly awaiting their upgrades to complete for steem. I like to hope\pretend this has something to do with a new hardfork here, or something :)
blocktrades is super fast about that transaction too... they do it INSTANTLY. I haven't had the opportunity to compare fees, but the fees aren't so bad from blocktrades, and it's nice to have a simple way to get bts in my bitshares account :-)
The interesting thing about blocktrades.us which easily moves SBD, STEEM, to BTS, is they don't list 100 coins. The pick only like 10 and focus on those..
They do what they do well. They specialize. It's unlike most coin exchangers or exchanges today.
Specializing and having a niche market is important. :)
Alas, the trade rate on blocktrades is a little disappointing. Currently on openledger, you can sell SBD for 17.9 BTS, but you only get 11.4 BTS for it on blocktrades. :frownyface:
maybe it's better to send the sbd to bittrex or polinex and buy the bts there? oh yeah, but bitcoin :shrug: thanks for the tip
interesting, I just exchanged some sbd for dash, and think I would have gotten a better rate with blocktrades... and realized you can't exchange for bts at bitrex so :-/
