This is assuming most of the top developers are onboard to switch to the new coin.
Roger Ver got his fork on coinbase within a short period of time after it was realeased? I'd take one coinbase listing over a bunch of these peon exchanges with no volume.
A rebranding could actually help the token. Many traders and investors avoid steem due to ninja mine.
Removal of SBD might be good as well. None of the top 30 or 40 coins have 2 separate coins ? Just complicates getting on exchanges and keeping exchanges. Plus complicates user experience.
Why have a pegged crypto that doesn't hold a peg, it removes confidence in the crypto platform. Developers can simply use an API that connects to the exchange and use a real time calculator for selling of goods.
