Powering up through blocktrades: is there any catch?

in #steem7 years ago

I have some doubts, if steem-power is not transferable.

How is it possible that I can purchase steem-power through blocktrades? What is the catch?

Is there any difference betwen to buy steem-power through blocktrades instead convert my sbd into steem and then power-up?

I saw these same questions here and here without an answer.

Sort:  

You are basically buying some of our "liquid" Steem and we send it to you as Steem Power. You could directly buy the Steem from us, then power it up yourself. We just also offer it as Steem Power to allow you to skip the Power Up step. The cost is the same either way.

@blocktrades when things are done with such a magic, and with good intentions some people tend to think there is something behind. You are doing so many great products since the beginning of the platform! All the steemit community really appreciates this @blocktrades.

@xfreemanx , You should be 100% sure that @blocktrades is providing this service just for making it easier for users. By using this, you avoid 1 step in having to transfer your Steem to Steem Power, which will ask you the active key.

By the way @blocktrades , have you checked this latest post I made were I added you in a chart together with @teamsteem , @lukestoeks , @elear , and @timcliff.
