RE: Does Coinbase Pick Favorites? (New Coins? When Lambo?)
I have been pretty tuned out to crypto lately but accidentally started watching a video today that talked about this very issue. I was shocked to hear there picks. I personally don't really care for any of these coins. I like the Brave Browser but not really sold on teh coin itself. I had so much Stellar that I sold so I missed the bump on that one. I know very little about Cardano and 0x, I was never sold on Cardano back when there was all that hype about it right before I tuned out.
While I hate the coin I'm surprised Ripple wasn't included. Surprised Ethereum Classic wasn't included since I believe they already have the ability to support it going back to the fork.
To me the best coins are coins that have communities or working projects and are not just far fetched ideas. Too bad Steemit fucked the duck in regards to distribution or it may have had a shot.
Well Ethereum Classic is officially getting added in the next couple of months. They announced that a couple of weeks ago. These 5 they are exploring so they may or may not be added in the future.
I'm also suprised they don't just give in and list Ripple as well. A lot of people who are newer to the space and suddenly became attracted to Ripple are pretty upset. Especially since there were all those rumors about Ripple that went back to January and someone created that convincing fake video where Ripple was integrated into the platform. LOL
I never had any luck with the Brave browser on Android or Linux and never ended up getting free coins in any of the airdrops. Plus I never thought the Basic Attention Token made complete sense to me.
With Cardano and Stellar I have some just to have a position but I'm not in love with those projects.
And with 0x I sort of tune out in a way when someone is building on the Ethereum platform and saying how it is going to do all this and that. I have heard it before and Ethereum isn't capable of all that at this point.
STEEM is like the greatest thing and the saddest story. Like it is so amazing but sometimes I just look at the ground and take a deep breath and shake my head.
The times when I really am blown away by what the community has done is when I see like 50 or 100 or more people getting together in some of these other countries for a meetup to talk about STEEM. It is pretty amazing and they are certainly excited about it.
I also think that Byteball was extremely smart for leveraging the STEEM community to do their airdrop. It is sort of ridiculous in a way that we have never got airdrops on here from Steemit INC in a lot of ways but they secured their future. They can play video games at the office for the next 10 years if they want to.
I totally forgot about the ETC announcement before. Any word on when that's gonna hit Coinbase? Think it will get a pump? That's one of the few alts I'm still sitting on. While I'd love to see a pump it seems like the days of things getting a huge pump just because they were added to Binance or CB are kind over. It seems the speculation over something getting added is bigger than it actually getting added
I think it will hit in a couple of months. I think it will have a fatty pump before and after it gets on there. I mean for a lot of newer people they will probably see it and it will have the lowest price point of any of the offerings on there and figure they should pick up a little bit of it.
