How Many Currencies to Be Listed in Crypto Exchange

Many crypto currency have 100’s of currency in the market. But they have come over there over  a period of time. It’s not a good idea to list 100’s of currencies on the day 1 of launch.

Reason is pretty simple

  1. Cost to run full node of each currency on our VPS is very high.
  2. Bandwidth require to maintain the code is very high , it may go upto trillion GB for 100 currency.
  3. Integration cost of all the currencies may go up to few thousand dollars.

Best thing would to launch an crypto currency  exchange with 20-30 Currency and increase the number as exchange grows.

What Currencies to Be Listed in Crypto Exchange

Just like number matters ,  what currencies also matters. Listing all the high value currencies or low value currencies will create a problem. While deciding the currencies to be listed we need to consider the value and its acceptance and popularity.

Listing all high value and popular currencies will drive away small investor. Their volume is blow but since the number of small investor are high , over all impact is much bigger.

Consider both type of currency while making a list. Like Bitcoin Ethereum are high value and DOGE , SIA COIn are low value. Keeping such a mix will attract more users.
