RE: Thinking Out Loud #1 - Getting rid of SBDs, The Minnow Makers Savings Plan & Looking Outward not in
The whole raison d’être for creating the Natural Medicine Tribe was to be able to reach the global community of people, bloggers, therapists, etc who are interested in natural Medicine, health and health, provide a space where they can earn a token for publishing quality content, and use that token for a number of related uses, such as courses, etc.
SP is not really a 3rd currency, it’s staked STEEM. But yes, SBD is a bit weird.
And yes, an easier way to buy STEEM could be useful, especially if we want people coming via niches to easily get their native token also.
For Natural Medicine, I wondered if we couldn’t set up some kind of annual subscription type service where they pay something like $50/year (I made that figure up, mainly because it’s the annual
Membership for Medium), which when paid is converted immediately into STEEM or LOTUS (our token) and delivered into their wallet. It’s just a brainstorm at this stage, would need to be workshopped by economics/math/dev type people to work out how to make it viable and how to actually make it happen — like some kind of pay portal!!!

I will follow closely how it all goes with Natural Medicine.
Will be interested to see how it goes with the subscription model.
