I believe if SBD were given a chance to maintain a peg, it would bring Steem so much further than a blog-only utility blockchain. Let's not limit ourselves! The potential network effect value of a stable token that can be earned by just about anybody and sent faster than it takes to make a credit card transaction is enormous!

This is my ultimate dream, to be able to spend my Steem Dollars as actual money in brick and mortar places and online as well. By now, I should be able to purchase things with it at almost every online store that accepts crypto - but SBD is not there yet :/ I don't get it - it's fast and cheap to make transactions, why are people still so far behind? I could care less about the other crypto out there - steem blockchain already does what they all aspire to do yet people are blind to the fact or something...I can spend it in Korea as UpBit exchange has a direct KRW/SBD pair which is awesome. I've already convinced a few of the shop owners here to start accepting it as payment and they're absolutely in love with it! But that's not enough...
