I'm looking for videos to use in a Steemit Promotional video.
Does that video belong to you? If so, would you allow use of 1-second of it in our project?

Yes, this video is mine. Of course you can use it for a Steemit promotional video, I'd love to see it when it's finished also.

Can't comment from personal experience, but it's worth noting that Coinbase has a debit card available as well. That's good for crypto as a whole.

Since paying with one plastic card or another is the default for most Americans, that's good news. Anything that normalizes bitcoin is a positive step. The typical person needs to see what they see as established, legitimate people/companies using BTC.

Yes, of course, anything that brings BTC to the masses will help the community. This will also unfortunately prove to be one more way that the government will know exactly how much you have and have made with crypto. If you're ok with paying taxes and you agree with how your tax money is spent, then by all means adopt the debit card.
If that's not what you're after, there are other ways to store and access your money, like offline wallets.
