Fees!
It is something people tend to fret about especially in today's world, where promos and discounts and "free" is becoming common. The probable bitcoin split on August 1, may be out to curb high bitcoin transaction fees among other things, who knows!
Whatever the case; are fees necessarily a bad thing? Ofcourse not! There will always be fees! For some business to maintain top-notch service for their customers, without much financial strain on the part of the business, they may have to maintain fees.
Bitcoin for instance gained popularity and upsurge in the number of bitcoin transactions daily has led to high fees. Basically, miners have a huge number of blocks to process and to give your transaction priority, higher fees may constitute a substantial incentive.
Infact, there are people ready to pay these fees and going above the competition, by paying higher fees, may hasten your bitcoin transaction.
So basically, you are paying fees for speed! This speed reduces anxiety, as the longer your funds stay in speculative thin-air, the more anxious one stays.
This is where steem stands out! "3 seconds transaction speed and zero fees!"
However, most digital currencies still have to go through bitcoin with the exchanges. Thus, it is only logical that most exchanges will have fees.
In these steemgigs post, we want to remove some of these fees from off your own shoulders. We don't have a big pool, so we will simple call it: SteemGigs Rebates!
We keep playing with creativity, so as to teach in the process! We try to instill a culture of "mining with minds" in new ways, as we want steemians to look more in the direction of the steem blockchain itself, as a means to bring their enterprises to life. We pursue 5,000 posts under #steemgigs as our primary goal! We want the evolution of our creativity to fully expressed by means of full blown #steemgigs post. See how to post your steemGig here!

Vouch for blocktrades, simple and fastest exchange I've ever used!
Yes it is! The refund part is great too. Incase, you make an error and put in the wrong memo!
I did not know Blocktrades, from the looks of it seems similar to Shapeshift but with a lot less currencies and options. One of my issues with this kind of service is that the fees are not transparent. I don't have a problem paying fees for convenience, but transparency is key.
Great point. I think the next rebate or contest will touch on this. That initially was going to be the format for this post, so that steemians with more blocktrades experience can teach these things. Overall, i think there is a way to know these transaction fees. Let's see how it goes!
I love blocktrades and I wanted to convert some steem to bitcoin before the 1st of August anyway. I added the screenshot, I love blocktrades, honestly some websites or webshops to order food can take up processing time up to an hour. Which is simply insane if I want a pizza I have to order about 2 hours ahead.
So how fast was @blocktrades in this experience? Will send out your rebate! On the side what wallet do you use to hold your bitcoin? Do you know much about bitshares. Wondering if it is possible to have bitcoin private keys if one holds bitcoin on bitshares being that it is a decentralized exchange
