RE: Steemit Needs to Change its Reward System to Better Incentivize Intelligent Discourse in Blogs: The Comment Section Should Be the Lifeblood of Steemit, Pledge 50% of my rewards to top Commenters
It's probably too late now, but note that you can transfer "steem dollars" directly without waiting a week to convert them to "steem" first. You can even trade them on Poloniex (for about 90 cents each) without having to wait. Presumably the buyer will eventually do the conversion and have to wait 7 days, which is why he's paying less than a dollar each for them.
