Hey guys,
Question I have is: once an ICO is over and later an ALT coin/token gets listed on exchange, how is the price of the ALT determined?
Is there for example a formula that is used by exchanges based on ICO sale price or is it just pure supply/demand? So in the case of the latter, does the exchange simply list the coin and let the buy/sell orders drive the price?
Also to add to this question, if an ICO decided to give away ALL it's coins/tokens as an airdrop, can it still be listed on exchange? Or that would not be possible?
Look forward to feedback on this.
Matching platform works by matching buying and selling orders of their users. There's no need for some sort of algorithm on exchange side to determine price of an asset in any point in time including the first time asset is listed on an exchange.
