I'd really like to know when this is going to be resolved. This debacle seems to be artificially inflating that exchange's price of Steem, and thus skewing the prices elsewhere. Anyone have an insight as to when this could end?
I'm not a fan of Bittrex's interface, however the instability of Polo is making me consider sweeping that inconvenience aside and just learning to deal with it. Then again, I'm also not a fan of that price right now, either.
Upped! FoLLowed! ^^
That is very strange. This is all new to me. I don't even know how to convert my STEEM and SBD to USD?
Here's a comprehensive article written by @sykochica which goes over not only what Steem & SBD are, but what you can do with them, including how to convert to other currencies like USD.

Thank you, that is very helpful. I am going to keep writing and replying to good posts like this. Are there any debit cards that don't require a setup fee?
hey iot-corp, You can do it using blocktrade.us. It's how I learn to convert cryptocurrency.
Ok, that is very helpful. I think I will just keep writing and let my STEEM accumulate over time. Although I could use some occasional USD conversions! Trying not to do that, but at least it is an option. This is an awesome site and I am glad I have weaned myself off of the other social media sites that make money off of me. I am following you!
If you don't plan on spending your funds, power up. You can do that without ever leaving the platform, using the internal market for SBD conversion.
Ok, how does powering up help me? I am a newbie.
It helps you gain influence. I just wrote a short instruction on how to do it:

Get an account on Poloniex and transfer your Steems there. Then you can convert.
For SBD to STEEM, you can do it directly from your wallet on STEEM.
Did you read the post at all ?
Misunderstood
Well, you kinda can't do that right now, as this very post points out. Steem & SBD are disabled on Poloniex at the moment.
Hi winstonwolf,
I do not have any insight to when Poloniex will fix their wallet, but I did have to make the change to Bittrex a few months ago, due to the state I live in.
I still keep the charts from poloniex open (unlogged in) yet, I finally have gotten used to Bittrex. Best of luck regardless of where you have to trade!
A few months back me and Poloniex had to have a talk. I ended up telling them:
have things gotten any better in the last couple of hours? there are reports from other people that things have cleared up a bit
