I'm for leaving the internal peg. We can't set the market price elsewhere and that is fine. As SBD supplies increase prices on those external markets will come back towards the peg.
Your point about SBD being a short on the steem market is also relevant. If we believe in Steem how much do we want to short it?
Of course that doesn't mean we shouldn't all take a nice profit :)
You're right about that! I'm cashing out my SBDs as soon as they come in, too.
