Post 1: One Big Reason Why Projects Don’t Get Listed on Tier 1 CEXs
Even if a project raised funds, has a working product, and a strong team—
…it can still get rejected by a Tier 1 exchange.
Why?
Because one of the first things exchanges look at is daily trading volume if we talk about listing from the secondary market
Here’s what that means in real numbers:
✅ Some exchanges expect 100K USDT per exchange
✅ Others want to see 1M to 15M+ USDT total volume
And here’s the part no one tells you:
❌ Not all exchanges count
You can be listed on smaller CEXs… but if Tier 1 exchanges don’t recognize their volume—it’s like it doesn’t exist
We’ve seen projects spend $100K+ on listings… only to realize none of that volume helped them move to Tier 1
If you want to avoid that trap and choose the right exchanges from the start:
