RE: My Video Blog- "Fiat To Steem Via Steemit?" Could This Ever Happen?

in #steemit7 years ago

Here is the problem:

  • Steemit.com is run by Steemit Inc
  • Steemit Inc is incorporated in the USA.
  • Because of this Steemit.com (and it's users) would need to comply with AML & KYC regulations.

Steemit Inc very early on stated that they did not want to be labeled a money transmitter by the US authorities.

This doable but it has to be done outside of Steemit.com

Sort:  

I agree. Steemit Inc themselves would not want to directly exchange steem for dollars. But we are completely free to do it among ourselves.
