RE: Coinbase is looking for the next coin to add to it's exchange, Please Fill this form for Steem
will be litecoin or dash, as they are already fully developed
steem is not ready for this, has to come out of beta first
All cryptocurrencies are in beta. A fully developed coin is a dead coin.
coinbase earns money from trade volume, there is no demand for steem to justify adding it, monero has demand
If he was looking for volume, he would not make a survey would he?
They are looking for the most interactive community, I think Steem wins hands down. Unless you think otherwise! Coinbase is planning to become a major altcoin exchange in 2017, if we do not win the first round, we will have other opportunities, but if we do not try we will not know.
looking at that list, it wont be steem, at least 2 of those coins would be added before steem, there is no demand to buy steem, even zcash has more demand than steem, and zcash has a more respected group of investors and developers, steem is like a ghetto coin right now, it will rise out of that eventually with more distribution, there is not even a road-map for steem yet
BTC doesn't have a roadmap and does just fine even though the thing is archaic slow and expensive compared to steem.
Seriously? you do not find these statements offensive?
assuming this is what you truly believe why would you bring yourself and your family to Steemit? I have nothing against zec or zec developers, I also think you really have no idea about graphene or the tech behind steemit. So will let you take your time and read about it.
Guys , dont bash on the guy , why are you offended for your beliefs , not anyone has to share them :_) , I do love Steem , but the objective fact of the matter could be like he stated it , Investors won't care about bloging cryptocurrency and the like, they would care about returns on their investment, at least that would be logical in my mind. It's a controversial statement sure , but why get offended :D , get your ends together
I am aware that chainbase and steem has better technology, but coinbase earns money selling cryptocurrency, and zcash or monero has all the demand. Steem has about 6 more months of distribution and development before being ready for coinbase
so we at least need to show coinbase, that in next survey we should be on the first place on that list.
I dont think Steem needs any further dev to be traded on Coinbase look at ETH if they can trade it there they can trade ANYTHING
I think you are wrong. It will most likely be Monero that wins this poll.
This does not mean that one should find an excuse to be lazy and not spend 30 seconds voting for STEEM.
In spite of the knowledge that STEEM will not be selected this time around, you can rest assured that if enough people vote for STEEM, then when the next vote comes around, they will not have to select 'other' in order to vote for it again, for it shall be included within the list by name.
Now is a chance for STEEM to gain some recognition, and for the many who love this currency to demonstrate their numbers and their passion for it.
I would suggest that you, @craig-rant, worry not about whether STEEM will win the poll, but get your arse over there and vote just the same, to increase STEEM's chances of winning the next poll.
I, Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell, have cast my vote for ....
STEEM
I agree @eddard as this thought also occurred to me. Write in STEEM today to get Steem on the Ballott tomorrow.
Exactly. Just go and vote, winning is not the point here!!!
Dear Lord,
Hi Lord Eddard Stark , I'm doing a promo for my second post I would be very grateful if you gave it a look , should be funny and insightful , but maybe it has spent too little time in the barrel , so it might be a little dry, do tell :)

Disagree with you on this Craig. We should at least show them that we have an active and engaged community and get into Brian and Coinbase's consciousness at least.
The problem is that's steem is the only coin that is easy to earn. It has more users but less transactions because the transactions occur within the steem economy. I think getting more people on the platform is more important than more trading venues.
Good point:)
yes, I can see that I am the only person saying no while everyone else is saying yes, my role here is to provide balance, everything works better with balance
This is not a prediction game. There is no prize for being right. It is asking which coin do you want to be on the exchange.
Do you want STEEM to be on the exchange or not? If you do, then you should vote for it. As should others. That is the point of this post.
Whether we win or not is a separate thing, but just because we might not win is a silly reason not to vote.
I see your point, but me, I don't get religious about stuff. I do want to see steem on Coinbase, but not within the next 6 months, the timing for such a great thing for steem should be right, and since I have not seen the promised road-map that is now overdue, I cant imagine steem being on coinbase
That's fair. Regarding the roadmap, they did announce that there would be a delay (see post).
Reality is what you make it.
While you're right to an extent, the decision of whether or not adding STEEM to Coinbase it's not up to us. I mean, Coinbase is seeking to add a new coin to trade with and if they find numerous people asking for STEEM, they'll look at it and its addition will be taken into account for sure.
I am a realist, and according to poloniex and bittrex, steem has the lowest trading volume of all the coins being considered, that can and will change in the future
Monero is possibly up to bat at coinbase next it seems, see these 2 links:

the performance of the coin is good on the market, but the development team is nothing to brag about, the people behind monero might be too gangster for coinbase to get involved with, but demand for the coin alone is reason for coinbase to add monero. If coinbase is looking to work with professional business people then it will be Zcash, not monero
Zcash devs could double the supply of coins in the system and you would have no fucking clue. Zcash is a corp DOA coin.
Time will tell. I think Monero may have a billion dollar marketcap by 2018, just because it is not a clone based off Bitcoin (which Zcash is at it's core, just heavily modified) and it is actually thriving with no ICO / Centralized development backing just like Bitcoin has done. I may be wrong though, we'll see.
If it's less about politics and more about making money, then monero is the right choice for coinbase
Yeh, Monero definitely makes bank. I suspect it may hit $60+ per token this year with a supply of only 13 million coins right now...would still be under a 1 billion marketcap even at that value per token. The GUI they just released is nice too, I like it. That along with Ring CT going into affect (hides amounts transferred, on top of the address hiding already implemented) its getting very popular.
