RE: STEEM STILL NEEDS YOUR HELP! We are in 2ND Place now - LET'S BEAT ETH! We can do this!
NAVcoin won the Coinbase Twitter poll, but wasn't added. No company lets a poll like this be binding for business decisions.
Even BoatyMcBoatface only got used as the name for a submersible instead of the boat they were planning to name.
It would be a disaster for PR if they did that.
Was it a PR disaster for Coinbase? They only asked for suggestions.
This is different. Steem is much bigger than NAV and has a blogging platform attached that shows up pretty high in Google search rankings. Further I suspect that the Coinbase poll had some T&C attached which I haven't seen for this (though I may have missed them). Also Coinbase doesn't have a great reputation in the crypto community anyway.
I don't think there needs to be T&C. BTCC never said "We will add the winner".
We will have to disagree on this.
