I'd really like to see a BUY STEEM WITH SHAPESHIFT button on steemit like Purse.io:

[ranko-k]

That must be bug! I do not see Steem added using web interface. No updates on their official blog.

[ash]

Available in the app and browser here. Must be on your side

Just a warning @ash and anyone else:

(from the Shapeshift Slack)

yea…its live on front-end because we are doing final testing :wink:
i wouldn’t recommend using it quite yet

As for steem dollars:

shapeshiftjon [11:34 PM]
right now we are focusing on getting up steem (still debugging a few things)
SBD we can potentially add next

[someguy123]

New update. It's been removed, it was just a test.

please note, we were only teasing steem. Steem is not live on Shapeshift yet for trade. We will announce when it's available
Yes, we understand people have been posting but we are not live. We were doing some front end testing

LOLOL :D

[ash]

yeah super strange move by them

[hcf27]

Has any1 actually tried this?...

I just did but I didnt get a proper destination address... tried it with only 0.5 steem to test it and I didnt work

[cryptoiskey]

They are actually still testing it, I wouldn't be trying to exchange anything yet. They haven't posted an official release yet.

[someguy123]

Check my reply further up. They were only giving it a slight test... in production... It's gone now

[spookypooky]

This is some solid traction.

The simpler we make the spending of STEEM and Steemdollars as an actual currency, the easier we'll hit that sweet mainstream.

[manipulable]

[fishborne]

Niiiice. Maybe a post with trustworthy exchanges/applications for buying/selling BTC/STEEM ? For newcomers. ..

By the way, I know shapeshift is yours.
