Please don't send btc, paying to get on an exchange is the biggest smartest scam ever created. Atomic trade is a good exchange, it has a FinCen license which almost no other exchange rather than coinbase has.
This means it is there to stay as such a license costs around 10 million dollar. It totally deserves more attention, the owner is good guy and is continuously improving the site, listening to feedback. It also rewards the users for being active.

There are other ways of getting more attention and i rather do it via another way than being scammed to be on an exchange. Paying an exchange to be listed so that they can earn more money via fee is not the road we need to take.
