[Update 20181018] All 30 SBI shares were given out. Steemians are an amazing bunch of people! When I wrote the post, the vote count was only 1985, now we are second place with 4219 votes! Lets keep it going guys and bring STEEM to the top! Depending on how it goes, I might be announcing another round of incentives later today. So stay tuned!

Hello Steemians! For a cryptocurrency, getting an exchange listing is always positive for the price. Lately there are many articles on getting STEEM listed as part of the Netcoins listing contest and I will like to also play my part in getting STEEM listed on Netcoins.

The initiative, as I understand, is first started by @oracle-d. They posted this article announcing an open task to get people to vote for STEEM on the Netcoin listing contest, and I did. By doing so, you stand a chance of getting upvoted by @oracle-d but I would have voted regardless whether there is a reward :)

I will like to take this chance to mention that what @oracle-d is doing is a perfect example of how we can crowdsource on the Steem platform and get amazing results. I have talked about this potential time and again and I am glad to see how @oracle-d is bringing it to a new level.

Enough of talk, so how can you contribute to this initiative? Read on...

Why it Matters?

Any kind of exchange listing is good news to a cryptocurrency. Furthermore, Netcoins is an established listed company in Canada. They aim to provide consumers an easy way to buy and sell cryptocurrencies through 3 different services shown below:

As mentioned on their site, getting listed on Netcoins means the following:

• Getting your coin sold in 171,000 retail locations in over 53 countries across 6 continents
• Press releases and media exposure on financial sites and crypto sites (Nasdaq, Globenewswire, Coinmarketcap, Coincodex etc…)
• Global OTC desk availability

This is potentially huge for STEEM. Hence, if you want STEEM's value to appreciate, please spare some time and vote. It is not going to take you more than 2 minutes to vote. To further encourage fellow Steemians to vote, I will sponsor 1 SBI share each to the first 30 Steemians who reply with the screenshot of their vote. Note that I will only sponsor SBI shares to votes after the 1985th vote (current vote count at point of writing).

Thanks for reading! If you like what I am doing, please upvote and resteem so that more people can get to know about this wonderful initiative.

Projects/Services I am working on:

• Steem-Oracle Project
• Byteball to Steem conversion service
