DAG passed @Coinbase screening years ago, yet the listing process remains a black box.
The industry deserves clear criteria for projects to compete on a level playing field. We can’t claim to democratize finance while gatekeeping real builders.
@krakenfx@cryptocom@BinanceUS
Here is my little rant on exchanges that are putting up walls to get quality projects listed and my ask. (No CHATGPT USED).
@brian_armstrong@jessepollak you say you want a new process for listing - lets start with more transparency, something this industry highly values, for your listing process. @Conste11ation applied for listing over 3 years ago, we passed due diligence, but then got iced. Beyond @coinbase we have applied to nearly every exchange out there and I am floored by the lack of attention that we have received by American based exchanges considering we are a(n) #americasblockchain (not to mention how much work we have done with the US Federal Government for the last 5 years).
When I got into crypto and helped build @Conste11ation $DAG, I saw that centralized exchanges could assist in the discoverability of a new breed of entrepreneur and organizations that leveraged tokens in a unique way to activate customers and early adopters. This democratized the ability for people to back early stage projects by buying their product- something that was otherwise given priority to the already wealthy and venture capitalists. Thus crypto exchanges, and their marketplaces, ignited a rebirth and new frontier of open source development, entrepreneurism, and tokenization.
It was exciting and I truly believed that these institutions were on our side in helping build a new future... a new industry. An industry that allowed anyone to participate, "DYOR" (do your own research), and help companies grow.
But are they really giving the people what they want? Or are there hidden backdoor deals where some projects get listed and others don't because the winds changed for a moment.... or because special interest people prioritize their interests (hmmmm thats another topic for another day)?
At Constellation $DAG, we set out a mission to put all data on-chain and to open up the possibilities of using blockchain for more that digital assets.
We have deployed technology to the US Federal Government and have received over 13 letters of support for key players in the government (including the Secretary of Defense); we have launched a public network and tokenization with @DorTechnologies in nearly 3000 brick and mortar retailers across the globe; we are adding a layer of verifiability to data used in #AI with the largest archive of data @CommonCrawl...That's just a start.
And if that isn't enough, and we need a clearer value proposition, well - we have uniquely created a home grown differentiated L0 that let's developers create their own subnetworks (a differentiators from L1 Smart Contract networks) with complete customization. They control their network. Category creator? Definitely.
YET we haven't been able to get the attention of institutions that were supposedly a champion of blockchain technology and digital assets.
We are not alone in this as projects like $TRON @justinsuntron, who also represent strong open sourced developer ecosystems, real traction and adoption, strong community engagement, and are showing real world expressions of the adoption of blockchain technology, are getting blocked.
I repeat, weren't the exchanges supposed to be the marketplace for discoverability? The champions of the industry.
We get overlooked for projects that are memes with a great marketing use but no attempt at utility. Don't get me wrong, I like the meme playbook and I believe it has helped market and grow the wider crypto ecosystem, but many of these meme tokens do not represent what digital asset holders are looking for: they are looking for real world utility and categories that meet their ethos. I understand exchanges need to make money and can't solely be altruistic while needing to evolve with market and retail trends...but they need to listen to communities and founders while creating a transparent process to being listed.
Have we really gotten to a point that certain exchanges have ZERO mission statements and are for purely for economic gain? Has there been a pure flippening of greed that has taken place?
Or do we as an Industry still have that drive to bring adoption of a unique technology to the marketplace and allow those projects the opportunity to prove themselves?
My ask:
-Talk to founders directly.
-Talk to community members on why they believe in their mission and founders that they support.
-Create clear and transparent evaluation processes and guidelines for listings. Don't just send a link for us to fill out and say "we will get back to you". Actually have a conversation on why we are a beacon for a positive tone in our industry. There are a lot of great projects out there and people making a positive impact on the world - I believe we can support this.
At Constellation, we want to further evangelize our message and vision. We want to attract the next entrepreneur and developer. We want to bring value to the entire industry.
We also want to work with the exchanges to bring a positive light to our industry and make it safe for everyone to participate. They call that democracy and this is America.
We will continue to march strong with our message regardless of listings and exchanges - but lets remove the red tape around centralized exchanges and allow builders to attract new participants- because I guarantee you, if we are building with the US Department of Defense, then I am sure we can build together.
I believe in any of you to take the leap and work with us.

@Dagnum_PI We must all come together as a community and put $DAG on their radar so much they cannot ignore us ‼️
There are thousands of us. HOW BAD DO WE WANT IT?

Hey, Uncle Elon (@elonmusk), you wanna be friends with me too? Put me in your will?
Well, I'm not gonna ride one of your rockets just yet, but I will be happy to save you a BUNCH of money - $DAG is a blockchain that has already spent 5+ years getting vetted by the U.S. military for "secure and scalable" transfers of ........ wait for it ....... DATA.
Data is the new oil - our machines that will rely on data need to have good data, immutable from a true source - and not manipulated/biased by the current Whitehouse Tsar of AI, Barak H. Obama.
