How to list my token on the exchange after it is created?

This is one of the most concerned issues for many new blockchain developers. But the reality may be more severe than imagined – the current review mechanism for token listings on mainstream exchanges has actually built a difficult threshold for ordinary project parties to cross.

Whether it is a top exchange (Binance, OKX Bybit), a second-tier platform (MEXC, Gate, Bitget), or even a small and medium-sized exchange (CoinW, LBank, Pionex), new tokens need to break through two tests if they want to list on centralized exchanges: first, the listing fee of hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, which has become a financial barrier for start-up teams; second, strict qualification review, exchanges usually focus on the core indicators of the project such as institutional endorsement, technical strength, and community size.
