For the last few days, the Steem Wallet has been down on @coinpayments.net. This severely limits how the Steem Silver Round can be ordered as Steem has been the preferable way to pay. We are unsure how long it will take for @coinpayments.net to correct this wallet issue, so we have created a new way for you to order using Steem!
Order your Steem Silver Rounds at https://steemsilverround.com
With the price of Steem approaching $3.00 now would be a great time to make your first purchase of the Steem Round or dollar cost average with a previous order.
Direct Steem Payment
Today, we created a work around for the Steem Wallet being down with our plug-in tool! As you notice on the checkout page, there is a new payment method called "Steem Payment". By using this method, your order will go through automatically and be logged at the time you placed the order. The price will be displayed in US Dollars, but if you select this method you will receive an email from us letting you know how many Steem you owe for your order. The price of Steem will be taken from CoinMarketCap at the time your order is placed. To see the current price of Steem from CoinMarketCap, click here.
Here is a zoomed in version of the above picture
Making Payment Using Steem
Once you receive the email with the total amount Steem that you owe along with the memo, you will send the Steem and memo to @steemsilverround. Sending funds to any account other than @steemsilverround, will result in the loss of your funds.
Upon your order being placed that status of your order will be placed into an hold payment status. Once the payment is received you will receive another email that says your payment has been confirmed and the status of your order has changed to processing.
Silver Price Increase
The price of silver is volatile and has recently eclipsed the $17.00 mark. We are going to lock in a few hundred ounces of silver soon at the current price in case the price of silver continues to rise. With that being said, if the price of silver continues to increase the price of the rounds will increase as well.
Group Buy
If you are from Australia or the United Kingdom, there are group buys for these countries to help with shipping costs! @silverstackeruk is commanding the United Kingdom group buy. @bmj (Perth), @mattclarke (Adelaide), @buggedout (Rest of Australia), @mazzle (Melbourne), and @stephen-somers (South East Queensland) are taking care of the Australia group buy.
