Your position is clear. But how then can the coin become popular and in demand in the crypto community? without listing on exchanges, it seems to me that the project has no future ...
There is no way for the project to go from listing on exchanges ... sooner or later, the team will come to the need to take this step.
Obviously, it will happen ... when exchanges will be ready to list us. It's not that easy, since we are not Blockchain. They will have to implement a custom integration adapter on their side. We will be glad to help, but still ... it's some work.
