Welcoming CoinGecko to the VIPO Club
We are proud and delighted to introduce a new member to our Very Important Project Owners (VIPO) club - CoinGecko. In the unlikely case you’re not familiar, CoinGecko is one of the earliest and largest cryptocurrency ranking websites in the world, active since April 2014. They now track close to 3,000 coins from over 200 crypto exchanges, with millions of visits to their website and a multitude of applications using their free API.
With Utopian's help, CoinGecko hopes to grow the number of contributions to their open source repository and reward their existing community of contributors. We urge all developers to go take a look.
We at Utopian believe that a collaboration with a prominent project in the cryptocurrency world such as CoinGecko can help raise awareness of Utopian's services and greatly benefit the Steem ecosystem.
In our discussions with CoinGecko, we found them to be excited about getting more involved with Steem and Utopian, and the entire open source community. To us, that makes them a perfect fit for VIPO, as they have a significant project we'd all like to see more involved with Steem and Utopian. We are overjoyed to have them here, and look forward to this collaboration.
Project owners included in the exclusive VIPO group can add their projects to the whitelists of categories that require them, and receive professional help and guidance from our Community Managers in creating Task Requests on Utopian.io. With these resources, FOSS Project Owners can access the professional services offered by our community (such as graphic design, QA, visibility and copywriting) to help empower their project growth.
Finally I get what coingecko is about in broad strokes :) I been reading some posts about them but I didn't understand what was all the fuss for.
Well.. you should have simply open their site and see what's on it firsthand and it would be pretty clear :)
free time is limited and new projects are popping up like mushrooms :)
When you have the time, feel free to explore our site and we also got Android and iOS apps so you can access crypto info at your fingertips. Would love to hear your feedback!

Now, this is epic. Welcome to the team.
Great to see you working more with the VIPO club and bringing people into the Steem ecosystem. Top effort.
