We all know that if we want this cryptocurrency to strive and become number 1 ( at least that's what I hope) we have to do our part. Any currency is nothing without the people using it. So how do we help the community?
Sure if you have a business you can accept steem dollars as a payment but there's one simple thing you can do : Ask every business that interest you if they accept Steem Dollars.
This might not seems like much but business likes money and if they believe they'll get more customer by accepting payment in Steem Dollars they will accept it.
You don't believe me? Last year, my friend and I wanted to use paypal when we bought from a company but it didn't want to use paypal. What we did? We persuaded some of our friend to write to the same company and ask if they accept paypal as a mean of payment. Shortly after they announced they started accepting paypal.
We can do the same with steem dollars. And it is easy, a quick facebook message to their facebook pages. If everybody do it, sooner than later, they'll accept steem dollars and when they do we are one step closer to make steem the #1 cryptocurrency.
It works with everything, blogger, cinema, etc.
We have to show them they can make money by accepting steem dollars.
So I challenge you to write to some company and ask them if they accept payment in Steem.
Here some suggestions if you don't have any idea who to start with :
-Cinema's
-Online stores
-Credit card company
-Netflix
-amazon
Don't forget, the goal is to show them that some people are willing to use cryptocurrency and there's a possibility of making money by accepting it.
