Why Coinbase should sell Steem - Will you help convince them?
It was the middle of last week. I decided to invest in a few more Steem. I'm normally quite skint so this was somewhat of a rare occasion for me. Things started out as usual, buying Litecoin from Coinbase. Transferring that to Binance. Selling the Litecoin for BNB, and using that to buy my Steem.
That's when it all went wrong!
All I had to do was transfer my newly acquired Steem in to my Steemit wallet and power up. Easy right!... Yeah, you would think so but no, not for me. On Binance, I hit the withdrawal.
This is what I saw...
Well that's a bummer
So I decided to wait til they finished the maintenance. I'll transfer it later. Several hours passed and I clicked the withdrawal button again... Nope, still in maintenance mode. Damn! I'll try again tomorrow.
Tomorrow
Nope, still in... you know! Ok, they say that patients is a virtue.
Day 4, Sunday!
Gees man, how long does it take to do a bit of maintenance on a wallet? Are they completely rewriting the code? I mean... wtf!
Right, change of plans. Sell my beloved Steem back to BNB, then buy TRX(Tron) (it's cheap to transfer). Send the TRX to Bittrex where I can swap it for BTC, then get Steem again. Finally, send Steem to Steemit wallet and power up.
The process was going great.... until...
Aw man, Really!
You gotta be friggin kidding me. So now I'm stuck with TRX that, by the way, has now dropped in value since I bought it and I can't transfer it to Bittrex anyway. This is completely ridiculous. Honestly, what's a guy gotta do to get even a little bit of luck around here.
For Pete's sake... and mine
Please, Coinbase, hurry up and add Steem to your list of traded crypto currencies.
Actually, perhaps you my readers can help with that...
Will you help convince Coinbase to sell Steem by adding it to your watchlist?
It's not hard...
Online:
- Log in to your Coinbase account. If you don't have one you can Sign up here!
- Go to https://www.coinbase.com/price
- Scroll down to find Steem and click the star.
On the Coinbase App
▪ If you don't have a Coinbase account, you'll need to sign up at Coinbase.
▪ If you don't already have it, get the Coinbase App(that's the Play Store link, but I'm sure you can get it on Apple too)
Now just follow these steps...
▪ Log in to app
▪ Go to 'Prices' (1)
▪ Click the watchlist thing (2).
▪ Click 'See all assets' (3)
▪ Scroll to find Steem, Click 'Add to Watchlist' (4)
That's it!
Obviously in that last pic, I've already done it, but it really is that simple.
