With this big push on at the moment encouraging Steemian to vote for STEEM to be added to gonetcoins, I figured it would be a good idea to do a bit of research into what exactly we are voting for. Here goes...
From the voting website, we find the following information:
What getting listed on Netcoins means:
*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

That all sounds excellent, so lets have a look in detail.

Some quotes from the company website - source Link
Netcoins Achieves Over $21 Million in Transactional Revenue in 2018 Q3, 400%+ Gain Over 2018 Q2; Sets New Monthly Revenue Record in September at over $8.7 Million
Netcoins Signs Definitive Agreement with Voucher Partner to add 150,000+ New Locations in 65 Countries; Launching this Fall
Imagine being able to pick up some STEEM while you are getting your slushies at 7eleven, or fill up your gas tank and get buy some STEEM at the same time.
With a listing on Netcoins, these sorts of opportunities will become available.
So, right now STEEM is in third place on 2388 votes. PAC coin is first with 4517 votes. We need to step up our efforts to win this. Vote now and vote everyday. Check out this link to @oracle-d's post for more info on how to vote.
The only other thing I am curious about is if we don't win, will Steem Inc pay the fee (with a 25% discount) to be listed anyway. I would love to hear from @ned or @steemitblog or someone that may know. Witnesses, could you ask the question - surely Steem Inc could afford the USD 30,000 listing fee.
Make sure you vote.
Thanks for reading,
John.
