What is your contribution to encourage the adoption of cryptocurrencies?
Hello dear friends!
The mass adoption of cryptocurrencies is a highly discussed, evaluated, and highly desired topic by any crypto enthusiast. Mass adoption is the ideal economic status for any lover of this technology, who dreams of arriving at an establishment, ordering some good or service and then taking out their mobile device and canceling with some currency from their crypto wallet.
Navigating this wonderful steemit ecosystem I stumbled upon this post from @steem-supporter, where they announce the launch of OpenMarket, an exclusive decentralized marketplace for Steem, where users will have the opportunity to buy and sell Steem related items and any offer that affiliates to the system can present.
About OpenMarket
Today we have came back to write a post announcing OPEN MARKET (A Decentralized Market Place for STEEM).
What is Open Market?
Open Market is something similar to EBAY where everyone is allowed to buy and sell anything. Exclusively for steemians.
How does it will work?
Any one wanting to sell anything in open market can simply use the quick listing and list there items for a USD price i.e converted to STEEM in realtime, there are no fees for quick listing. If anyone wanting to list a lot of items and want their own custom shop page like the amazon has, they might have to pay a specific price. However quick listings are limited to 5 active listings.
Open Market is presented as an alternative bet to conventional markets, and in my opinion, if this market is consolidated it can be expanded achieving a more practical and effective use of the currency, which would undoubtedly add value to this currency and others that can be used in initiatives Similar.

Can we contribute?
The initiative presented by @steem-supporter powerfully caught my attention, and I was wondering what we can do to help promote the adoption of cryptocurrencies.
We constantly express our desire for cryptocurrencies to consolidate as a system of payment for goods and services, alternative to the traditional system and ending up replacing the fiduciary cutie.
Inside and outside our community we find posts from people who seem to be business experts, there are even many entrepreneurs who live in different communities.
Are we willing to contribute?
Everyone seems to be waiting for the big headlines that state the acceptance of cryptocurrencies to acquire a product, that the big companies take the initial step, we are involved in crypto but it seems that we do not trust them as much.
How many of those who read and publish daily about cryptocurrencies and have a small business are willing to accept cryptocurrencies as part of payment in their small business? How many are already accepting this payment system?
I think it concerns all of us, I don't know how I would do it, but I think that if I were a small business I would put a sign where it would be read CRYPTOCURRENCIES ACCEPTED, I ACCEPT STEEM!
Only Steem!
We are Project HOPE a community that brings hope!

I published a book titled "Bitcoin for Beginners," available on Amazon and I convinced my son, who owns a barber shop, to advertise on his web site that they accept Bitcoin. I have also convinced several friends to buy and hold one Bitcoin. Every little bit helps, right?
Hello friend @clayrawlings, great work.
It seems little but it is very important, each step we take brings cryptocurrencies closer to people.
Thank you for your comment, those testimonials are the ones we want to hear most often.
This is so true ! Everyone wants adoption but who is truly looking for ways to pay in cryptos?
Not so many right? :D
Thanks @fucho80
Correct friend, if we are betting on this, we need to push adoption more strongly.
Thanks for being here!
In my country anyone who is dealing with cryptocurrency is seen as a fraud, there was a time I had a customer and I was trying to tell her I could accept bitcoin as a means of payment and the next thing she told me was, do not tell me you are also into fraud?
With the situation of things in my country, I do not think I can publicly accept cryptocurrency.
I just love the idea of developing a decentralized marketplace powered by Steem Ecosystem where users can buy/sell anything using STEEM coin. It will not only bring awareness about crypto but it also makes buying/selling services or goods easier around the globe. I would love to contribute to and support this project.

Hi @fucho80
I have visited the market, knowing the market through @steemitblog. It's just that I haven't been trading there . :)
Very good is a start, we should use more those types of markets and promote them among friends and family.
Thanks for your comment!
You're welcome.
I must admit that so many of us are guilty of this act and the earlier we begin to promote this system we claim to believe in, the more it becomes acceptable.
