damn that's a lot of trouble.
Steemit is my job..so I pay myself a salary at the end of each month.
I send a certain amount to BlockTrades which instantly converts it to LiteCoin and sends it to CoinBase, where I instantly sell it for USD and not so instantly (two or three days) it gets to my bank account.
simple... takes about five minutes (except for the bank transfer from coinbase)...never leave my chair..
Yeah, this is more for people who really need it on the spot (like I did that day). I'm going to be making a follow-up tutorial on keeping the money digital and withdrawing it through coinbase soon. I've been hesitant to do so because of how horrible coinbase's customer support is, though. I'm still waiting for them to get back to me on why my bank verification isn't going through even though I am entering the right numbers every time. Very frustrating experience, and because of that I am advising everyone against using it.
coinbase's customer support is non existent.
but once you get set up.
it's GREAT...as a $ Transfer portal.
