I am doing research, and I would appreciate your feedback. My primary goal is to understand how my fellow Steemians prefer to make payments via the Steem blockchain.

Which payment option would you prefer?
- Direct payment with Steem or SBD - This is a common and convenient payment option available which can be made via your Steem Wallet.
- Payments made via @SteemBasicIncome Sponsorships - This payment system requires trust in a third party. The promise is that every share of @SteemBasicIncome equates to a vote on your future post and the person you sponsored. As long as the program runs smoothly, the investment of 1 Steem could be repaid back over time.
- Automating Voting - Instead of using liquid Steem, would you prefer to pay for a product or service with an automated vote to the person you are paying? Automating voting as a payment would not impact your Steem wallet (in the short term) but it would impact your voting activity (which might impact your Steem wallet long-term).
I want to hear from you.
Let me know which method you prefer. And if I did not include your preferred method then share more about your ideas in the comment section.
Also, let me know your 'why'. What is the reason for your choice?
