Many of us have been holding some SBD from quite some time. If you are hodling SBD in hopes of it going up but now want to pick up some STEEM instead, you can easily do it by using Steemit's internal market. You can get almost 1 STEEM for each of the SBDs you are holding so I suggest you make use of the opportunity right now.
Point is STEEM is everything that you need and that's the token worth holding and powering up. I've sold my SBDs time and again to buy STEEM and that's worked out the best for me.
You can easily change your SBD for STEEM and when the prices go up your influence on the blockchain too will rise. It won't happen when you hold SBD. However, if SBD itself is near or under peg of $1 then it makes sense to hold it because it might rise a little providing some profit. However, it's value in USD doesn't matter much if it drops value in Satoshis when rising in USD.
So keep these things in mind when you decide to hodl it long term. Market makers do it for their own reasons however most small users need STEEM to participate here.
has a post every new user must read to understand and if you are still wondering why SBD should be at peg then you can read some of the top comments here. So be sure to read these two posts and the comments in order to grasp our platform and it's functions in a better way.
