Wow! What a week here in the wonderdul world of steemit. In 5 long days we have all come to learn about resource credits. Now I will have to tell you that, I personally have not seen any good with the RC's so far.
I mean lets face it, resource credits basically shut down steemit for 5 days. Then they rolled out the patch and everything was looking better. Steemnit is back operating at somewhat of a normal pace. Then this happens....
Now I do not want anyone to think this is a rant about blocktrades. I Have used them for over a year, from buying steem to using their delgation services to withdrawing steem. Never once have I had an issue with them, yea sometimes I feel like the fees are a little high, but lets face it over all they are a top notch exchange.
Until the RC Monster got em.
Now you can send them steem and echange it for bitcoin, litcoin or any other crypto they offer. You can not how ever buy steem from them! Thats right you can not buy steem from them, or should I say you can buy it but you wont get it until @blocktrades has enough RC'S to send it to you.
So at a time when steem is struggling, we are allowing people to pull steem off of the platform but they cant invest in the platform. THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR STEEMIT. Come on guys cant we get this shit together blocktrades is currently sitting at a negative 386,372b resource credits. Now they are telling everyone who has sent a trasaction to them to buy steem that it will be Monday before you will recieve your steem. My question to @blocktrades is how? How will you be able to send out all the steem you owe by Monday? Now unfortunately I made a purchase with @blocktrades before the message was put onto their website. My advice to any steemian is this, do not buy any steem from blocktrades unless you have checked their website first.
Again this is not a rant about @blocktrades, hell they are just another victim of Resource Credit. But when you cant power up on a platform that is currently suffering because all other major exchanges have steem suspended, you kinda have to depend on @blocktrades.
So I know that @blocktrades will make right on what they owe, but we all know in this crazy world, cryptos value can change dramatically in seconds. So every second is critical when you do not have what you paid for.
Unfortunately, I will not get a response from @blocktrades, yeah they wont be able to answer or vote this post, remember they dont have any resource credits.
Well thats enough for now. Maybe one of the awesome devs from steemit should figure out how you can delegate resource credits, since they seem to be worth more than steem.
Thanks for stopping by.
