I provided the convenient option. It's just that it leaves your funds massively exposed. The relatively lengthy transaction times built into *-coin transfers are going to make most conversions 'clumsy'. What alternative would you recommend?

One possible option that required 10 seconds of thought to come up with- multicoin wallets on both ends of the transaction.

Why can't people (on this site of all places) spend just a little bit of time thinking about how things could work well instead of merely pointing out problems?
