Altcoin Season stopped because Exchanges listed scam memecoins instead of Utility coins

Exchanges ask for huge sums of cash to list on them

EG Binance asks for X% of the supply according to Cointelegraph

If the project is raising at a $X billion valuation, this would be a $70m listing fee

The reason we cant have Altcoin Season is because Exchanges are gatekeeping the best crypto projects from us and continue to serve us VC slop that they dump on us from day X

They do not care how great and world changing your idea is, unless you want to give them tokens to dump on retail, they don't care.

The only way to fix this is to ban listing fees for projects on exchanges and base it purely on merit.

The Exchanges make so much already, the listing fees are out of control.
