RE: How are we going to sell things in our Steemshop?
I think you mean prices rather than prizes. I'll have to make sure I have some Steem available to use. If stuff is only available for a week I may not have time to power down to get some.
Yes of course prices. I will answer from my own account since mana is still an issue. We do not plan to make stuff available for only one week, but the prices will only be valid for one week. we have talked about how to handle the expenses of making the thing compared to the sometimes volatile nature of steem price, and decided that we could not guarantee a given price for more than the duration of a post. we have no intentions of changing prices significantly unless the steem price changes, but just to make sure we are not caught having to sell at a price where we lose a lot of money, to live up to a price.
If the offer runs out and the item(or items) is/are not sold out, it will be possible to still buy them but the price will have to be renegotiated.
I fixed the typo, Thanks :)
A lot of Steem seems to be bound in Steem-power and people has to power down or buy Steem with other crypto currencies. This is a test and we will of course make it possible for everyone to buy.
I had this cash flow problem in the late summer where I needed to pay for the auto-voting service, but didn't have any SBD ready. After that I have made sure to have some cash at all times :)
I may just take 50/50 rewards to build up some Steem. I've been powering everything up, but I'm open to buying things for Steem.
I hope to see the Steem price improve so we have more buying power. Next year will be interesting.
I just wrote the manifesto and in reality the agreement between the seller and the buyer is made in private e-mail correspondences where any old agreement can be reached. That includes: buying on credit, paying in other currencies - fiat or crypto, barter trade and much more. We just provide the framework, and we are just interested in making things work.
None the less it is still our idea that we will sell our own things in Steem. The things we sell ourselves will be powered up and our votes on the profile will go to quality content that we like across the platform. But for customers we trust payment might for example come in rates when available. Just like in old fashioned stores - so no worry :)
