Thanks 4 sharing this, interesting. The big hurdle 4 me with cryptos is the initial purchase -- to the uninitiated it appears terribly complex and time consuming.
I wish it were possible to simply pad my Steem wallet via a debit card. Or 4 that matter, is that possible?
As far as I know you cannot pay with FIAT at this moment.
There are other ways though. If you have access to a Bitcoin ATM you can buy some bitcoins with cash.
In the meantime I checked YouTube and found a way using the service: Circle Pay. You can use a debit card for a bitcoin purchase :-)
