Thanks for that post - thought provoking!
I find myself afraid to convert fiat to crypto - the fluctuating nature of the the cryptos is intimidating, and a friend of my that did invest fiat in the recent peak lost about 40% of his investment. I do like cryptos and what I get on steemit I hodl, why? Because it's money I got in the platform so it's easier for me, emotionally, to keep it in the platform - and it has a dividend to it so it's even easier.
I guess the virtualness of the payments makes it easier - it doesn't feel like "real" money and you never hold it in your hands before handing it, i guess that giving someone a Trezor wallet filled with BTC will feel harder.
Right now i prefer to hold everything I got in the form if SP as I believe in the platform and want to be a long term member - this SP makes you more influential and helps you advance in the platform.
