It is not a new information that SPS is finally available in Base. Almost anyone who is related to Splinterlands have already known that information. While one of the most intriguing part regarding that statement is there are platforms which are yet to adopt this news. Although, it is understandable that the amount of trading which are being done on this pair is not much. But yet SPS has achieved this milestone which many new crypto projects dreams of! This is indeed a great step forward for the whole of Splinterlands community.
If you are in crypto currency world for some time, you must have explored web pages where you can see real time data of different crypto based assets. Where the web page displays coins prices, details of those coins, market capitalization and so much more! Among many which are availanle in the market today, which I often use are Coinmarketcap and Coingecko.
Few reasons, which I use them is because of the reliability and trustworthiness. In today's crypto scam world this sort of trustworthiness and legit information are very tough to find. Any information which I need in my everyday life regarding any new/old crypto related research, these are the places that I often move to and dive into for. Upon doing my research in these portals, later I consider going through different social media platforms of these new/old projects to collect more data. Which is why, nowadays I often end up not liking many projects due to their social media presence.
Now coming to talk about the topic, which I wanted to discuss with you all. As we all know, being on base chain gives SPS a very good chance of focus and exposure. But without much of an exposure we cannot really grow to the point which we are really seeking. Which is why any sort of publicity from any platform or in any way from anybody would eventually help us grow in the longer term. Thanks to everyone, who are giving their time and effort in different social media platforms and helping the project of Splinterlands, SPS and HIVE grow and let people know about us outside of Splinterlands and HIVE. Keep up the good work folks!
Traffic, in Coinmarketcap & Coingecko
Lets talk about how busy these so called sites are, in terms of visitors all across the world. Upon doing some search and thanks to https://www.semrush.com/website/ I got a rough idea about CMC and Coingecko. Even though the data might not be correct but since it is an estimated amount it is indeed something to look out for. And to be honest, the number really amazed me and sure crypto folks do spend a huge amount of time in these two websites for crypto related concerns.
Both of these websites are my go to pages when it comes to my search regarding crypto coins. Also not to forget any information which does not matches between these websites and the projects which is claiming, an immediate red flag goes into my mind. And later upon more and more digging all these doubts gets cleared. But that sensation of red flag is really not a good way to start a research about a certain project.
Which is why I was going through Coinmarketcap and Coingecko the other day and was searching SPS in the search bar and I was little confused. Well, like I stated that SPS getting in the Base chain is a huge chance of exposure to people outside of Hive Eco system but without much of a marketing it will not get us that far.
In Coinmarketcap website, upon opening SPS we get to see the info bar, where most important information regarding a coin is stored. And hovering above Contract we get to see which of the chains a coin is currently available. Well, guess what, the newly added base chain is missing in this particular info tab!. The only one which is available is Binance Smart Chain also Ethereum chain is missing out in the details. I am not saying its a red flag but since we are already in the chain of Base and we are currently providing liquidity over 200k in the pool of SPS:USDT pool in base chain, why not add this information out in here as well. This could provide us with little more exposure than we have now.
Coinmarketcap
Coingecko
Well, seems like in Coingecko the details of base is missing out in here as well. Although, out in Coingecko Ethereum chain was successfully updated. Either way, Base contract address is also missing out in here as well. This could use some work and hopefully this data will get updated ASAP.
All I am saying is, this would probably just require some communication between Splinterlands Team and the team of CMC and Coingecko. This update should not require much of a time. Even though, I have close to no idea how this works in order to update any new information of a particular coin in these websites. But whatever it is, this could eventually turn out to be positive for us. Because like I stated there are users who often search for these tokens contract address and often end up in buying fake coins due to not getting the legit address. Which is why having a contract address from a legit source could give us more reliability as more accuracy of these token.
Well hopefully CMC & Coingecko gets to see the updated information ASAP!
