RE: Attention SBD Converters: Please Read - Important Information about SBD -> STEEM Conversions

in #sbd8 years ago (edited)

The blockchain price is used to determine the amount of STEEM that SBD conversions produce

The conversions between STEEM and SBD happen on the internal market and are based on the price of STEEM which would mean that the price of STEEM on internal market is set by witnesses. Are there other internal conversions that I'm not aware of?

Sort:  

I think you are confused. There are two completely separate prices:

Price 1: The internal market price, set by the buying and selling of STEEM/SBD.
Price 2: The internal blockchain price, set by the witnesses price feeds.

There is also a difference between "converting" SBD to STEEM (done through the wallet, and takes 3.5 days), and "trading/exchanging" SBD for STEEM (done through the internal market, or through an external exchange).
