Crypto Exchanges Charges 10x More To List Tokens
A new report indicates that the cost of registering new tokens on cryptocurrency trading platforms comes with a high price compared to traditional exchanges charge. Digital currency exchanges can cost up to 10 times more than the advances in venture capital.

“The market price to list a crypto token on an exchange is $1 million for a reasonably regarded token, to $3 million for an opportunity to get quick liquidity,” explained the authors of the report.
Tokens become more attractive if buyers know they can trade them easily, which means that the success of an ICO can be reduced often.

The only exchanges which are doing trading manually or their are lot of whales trading that exchanges are only charging high due to fluctuating the price of the coin high. So the coin which is going to list get more benefit and if the coin is pump & dump then the developer get profit very soon and leave the coin dead in that exchange. This type of exchange is not healthy for a good coin with a good project. as this exchanges most of time kill the coin value and investors of this coin get loss due to coin value getting lowered.

I do think this is completely a good thing as it can affect the success of some small ICOs.Imagine giving out 1 million $ of the total sums realized during an ICO.This will only enrich the owners of such exchanges.I think it was caused by the proliferation of ICOs.Maybe decentralized exchanges will be better in this regard.

I think the ICO should be regulated so that ordinary people will not be scamed like they are at the moment.

That's already an ongoing process, but it will take a considerable amount of time before we see it spread out globally, and till that time, exchanges will keep doing what they have been doing, which is banking on ICOs.

On the other hand, people should be responsible for their stupid investments, and not just rely on exchanges or regulations to filter out potential scam ICOs, because even with regulations investors aren't entirely safe.

Nothing prevents ICOs from either failing or committing fraud, which will likely result in worthless tokens in the long run. If you jump into any ICO thinking it's safe to invest in due to regulations, you'll be up for a surprise.

Common sense in most cases is enough to avoid investing in certain ICOs. If we look at the ICO market in general, then it's just one big gamble depending on too many external variables to be considered a good option.
