Coinmarketcap's new feature - Chat

[James1970]

Chat, what a joke. When we will see honest chart instead?

To be honest I have not noticed this feature yet. Do you think after Binance bought Coinmarketcap now, Binance will do some majore changes with the platform? So to start of the chat feature is appreciated imo

well at least when there is information that will be developed a platform does not have to provide information first because in my opinion when there is chat development is not very important because we all know that the coinmarketcap platform is only used as information from all cryptocurrency volumes and registered exchange places.

Binance probably planned to have people spend more time in the site, so that's why they created chat, i don't know if people will actually end up spending more time, better than nothing i guess.

This might be a "good" improvement for CMC site since they can gather more visits from people who are promoting their altcoin project.  Sadly, this chat becomes a shilling ground for projects that wanted to hype their token.  Reminds me of some project hiring shills to hype their token on CMC chat.  I, too think that there is no need for chatbox for the reason that it may be used to shill worthless projects that often are devastating to investors.

This new feature is good chatting with crypto enthusiast but I don't think if people like it, some prefer to use telegram including me but let's see in the future and who knows this coinmarketcap chat will be add the new campaign.

Have joined the chat, it is interesting for me to be able to share experiences and insights that are very useful for everyone and be careful of fraud because this is very easy for anyone to enter into the chat

Another new way for scammers. This is a good feature. This will allow CMC to keep traffic on their site longer, and increase its traffic as it gains popularity. But people will use it for bad. Some will use it to scam newcomers while others will use it to coins pump and dump. So everyone must be careful in using this feature. Don't give your hard earned money to scammers.

Well, I am just noticing that now, because I have not been making use of the Coinmarketcap website for a long time. I opened the website and then a notification popped up on the website to explain what the chat feature is all about. You can’t make use of the chat if you have not created an account on the website. You will first have to create an account and then will you be able to join your community and discuss with them.

But there is how the chat works, and they only have channels for the top 200 coins on Coinmarketcap (CMC). But from the explanation I got, the channels are opened only when there is a big price movement for that particular coin, and it will be open for 24 hours. It’s quite a good feature they are adding there.

Noticed chat few days ago, but did not use it. Can someone explain the purpose of it? Consultation in question about cryptocurrency (sort of a support, which answers instantly). Or users simply can chat? That kind of web chats were popular in year 2005 +/-. Who needs them in 2020? I dont understand.

I guess no one has noticed and posted this so, I'll be posting it.

I've noticed that there's a messenger icon beside the search box and it's the new feature they have released, the chat. It requires logging in so you can chat with specific communities for each coin. There are channels made already there and you can join for those channels that you hold the coin. I didn't noticed that it was already announced last June 11.

News: CoinMarketCap Launches Chat

I saw the announcement on twitter via both binance and cz's official handles and i was really impressed because coinmarketcap is the coin tracker being widely used in the crypto space, so incorporating a chat feature to let traders, investors and related like minds to interact and discuss about there favorite coin is really an innovative concept. Thanks to binance for acquiring the platform, we are seeing changes already

They are turning coinmakertcap into one big circus show.
I never liked it before, but after binance purchased them it got even worse.
So I created account just to try chat, and saw I can't create anything I want, but only can write in chat owners created.
BNB is there for sure...

Not only that now coinmarketcap rank will be held by the traffic it generates every minute. I think it will show us more authentic data that we were given before. Many scams or shit exchange make fack volume to rank up in Coinmarketcap before. Now I think that won't be possible for this new method of ranking. I think these type of development will increase CMC's trustworthiness.

Maybe it's easier for users to report something, or new users to ask questions about what they don't know.
I think that's the only function, because when discussing a coin I think every coin has its own place.

What is the purpose of this chat? At first look it looks like a new Telegram, but when already there are chat groups that represent coins, why we need another site?

It's probably part of the new management of CMC. As you know it was taken into new management by CZ's company, Binance. Being the leading crypto exchange and aware of some struggles in the community which they can take into account.

They want to be as telegram and also provide the same feature of giving crypto prices to the community. And that means people who visit CMC don't have to go through telegram channels if they have already the community built on CMC.

But telegram is still a lot easier to use and people will be able to do more things at telegram. I have been using telegram for years to update news and chat with friends, so I think this coinmarketcap utility is superfluous.

Can't agree more with that and it's more popular than this new feature. We'll see how they'll innovate and get the attention of every crypto folk in this community and get those users into their new feature. CMC has been bought by BNB so this idea is coming from them.

I haven't seen the announcement, I just stumbled on it when I have visited the website.

[DabsPoorVersion]

I noticed it too but I don't give any attention to it,

But now that you have mentioned it, I take a look inside and it is a great feature. There are lots of different channels that we can look up to and learn from other users.

Yes, it can be used to be informed or learn from other people especially if we have common questions that can be answered by other people.

Wow, this is good but what can we expect from the chat?

There must be a chat moderator to ensure that there will be no spam of messages and referral posted. I haven't sigh up yet but based on my observation, chat is just abuse by the FUDDERS and those who like to hype to let people FOMO.

My initial statement before checking this feature, might update and will edit this post.

What we can expect is there are different discussions wherein there will be lots of information coming from other people. You can also share your thoughts anytime you want.

I am not quite sure if there is a mod but I agree to your statement. This might be abused by fudders and take advantage to the people who will fall from their trap.

Chat feature is the least thing I want to see from coinmarketcap team, I don't care about chats, what I am hoping for is how coinmarketcap will start removing junky projects from their website, too many scam projects still manages to get listed on coinmarketcap, that's no good

Yeah, that's right because so many scam flagged projects which were investigated by the scam busters , are now in CMC which is really a bad thing. As CMC only track the exchange's api to show the price or statistics of a new coin, they should also make a close contact with the forum's scam busters to verify the projects which is legit or scam before adding them in CMC. Then, crypto lovers will be able to track only the legit and genuine projects in CMC.

So much time sat on Coinmarketcap and did not see this chat. A useful feature for those who do not like hundreds of thematic channels in a telegram. Finally, I will unsubscribe from them and will be able to correspond in Coinmarketcap.
