Coingecko is now on STEEM

Coingecko is now on STEEM | Ecency

Ok, so I know I'm a couple of weeks late, but welcome @coingecko to STEEM. It is really great to see existing businesses seeing the potential here, and look to engage and perhaps monetize some of their own content. Having said that, I haven't really used Coingecko but have switched over now.

Taking a look around your site, I like it. The layout is very clear, the information well presented. Nice. I would love to see the STEEM link with the other social media links on the top bar, but maybe that is a work in progress now that you are here. I particularly like the customised dashboard, with nice clear panels for each of our selected favourite coins. I'm no chartist or crypto expert, still learning my way around. Your tools and site is most helpful.

One thing I do quite regularly is have great big, crazy ideas. Ideas I have no way of implementing, but in my head they are genius. In the few hours since I learnt of your arrival here, these crazy ideas popped out. I am sharing just to see what you think.

Huge Idea 1: A Coingecko front end to STEEM.

Imagine a Steem blockchain front end (like steemit or busy or steampeak) built in to a "Community" or "Blog" section of your website. May be it would be better off with a similar build to Ulogs - with built in subtags for each coin. Users of your site could join (Account creation for STEEM accounts can be done now directly by the Dapps - refer to @steemhunt for an example) and blog on your site with content placed onto the STEEM blockchain. Your blog posts would also appear here automatically. Your users would be able to contribute, and be rewarded by the STEEM eco-system, as will your company.

Front-end Dapps can (and many do) have built in a delegation where the post rewards from all users posting from the Dapp have a small percentage delegation paid to the App. Perhaps one of the existing front end dev teams could work with you (check our @steempeak, they are awesome) This would offer you a bigger (and steadily growing) Steem Power base to reward your contributors. A cycle of win-win both for your engaged users, and your company profits, and STEEM also.

Huge Idea 2: A Coingecko SMT. (I'll call it Gecko coin)

This is possibly linked to Idea 1. When SMT's start next year, the opportunities to reward users are multiplied. Not only can all engaged content creators, or commenters/curators earn STEEM and SBD, but another layer of payout from a custom made, tailored to your needs coin can be offered. Gecko coins could be offered for:

Posts from your from end - if you use idea 1
Reviews of Coingecko
Entries into your competitions, polls, and other activities you plan for this space
Airdrops to STEEMians
Airdrops to other social media users (encouraging facebook followers to sign up on your STEEM interface from Idea 1 for example)
Bonus for staff, contractors, developers.
Anything worthy purpose.
Gecko's could be used to pay for premium features, subscriptions, Upvotes, or traded for STEEM or other SMT's.

Those are my Great Big, crazy Idea's for you Coingecko. Feel free to take them and make a fortune. Or ignore them because they are too big or too crazy. Something to think about anyway.

Welcome to STEEM @coingecko

Cheers,

John aka @jk6276
