This should allow the SBD to start gaining traction, however it might not deliver the results expected so soon. When there exist Steem token, where values soar over 1000% once upon a time, and a certain Steem Power to give people the power, everyone seems to feel that SBD are pretty useless.

I believe we need to give the community more time, and start promoting the SBD too. But still, good initiative @dantheman , i'm sure with the new SD/Steem price feed, SBD will get utilised much better in future.
