Too many listed coins on exchange without volume, any reasons?

[Think Crypto]

It obvious that higher trading volum = more liquidity. liquidity refers to the ability of a coin to be converted into cash or other coins easily. Liquidity is important for any tradeable assets including cryptocurrencies.
Unfortunately, I have obversed that most coins listed this days on certain exchanges are without volume, that is, illiquid.
It is very clear that this situation was not common found before 2019.
What could be the reasons for this abnormalities. Your thoughts.

just don’t buy the coins which have small trading volumes. it's too dangerous. if you can't sell your coins to anyone, then you can just stay with these coins forever

[Iyeman]

that caused by those coins were getting listed on the crap exchange site, in this case crap exchange site means the exchange sites that fully manipulated its own volume and that means there was no liquidity on such exchange site and any coins that listed on that site will not get any volume to build the liquidity.

This could be the main answer why that thing was happening.

These coins or tokens that you are referring too are known as shit coins or tokens. Almost 80 percent of cryptos listed in CMC fall under the category of shit coins. These are those projects which have no future or have been stagnant for a long time.

[Fundamentals Of]

This was not very common before 2019 indeed. The years 2017-2018 was somehow very good years for altcoins. Those were also the years when the ICO craze was still very much alive. Crypto investors were still very much excited and bullish on crypto projects that was why hundreds of millions in investments were pouring in. Upon listing of new altcoins on exchanges, volumes would almost instantly rise.

Years after however, there seems to be nothing productive that came out of it. That was one big hollow trend. The beginning of the end then followed and the trust from crypto fans and investors started to fall down. And then altcoins slowly died, one after another. Volumes were lost, developments were not seen, even project team developers were slowly exiting.

What we are seeing now is but the aftermath of this, the lost of interest and trust in altcoins.

I think more than 30% of the coins or tokens that are on coinmarketcap are illiquid and are usually in small exchangers. Perhaps the factor is the inactivity of the project or there is no interest from new investors to invest

One factor that we can also consider is the exchange is not properly marketed or they have a reputation issues, I have seen so many exchanges in the scam sections and when they are reported investors and traders are shying away or stopped trading in these exchanges so traders should be careful in dealing with these exchanges.

I will never buy those coins/tokens because I know it useless and its hard to take profit on no volume listed coins. Well, technically there's a volume but that's not enough for you to trade actively.

Good exchanges will de-list all the inactive tokens/coins because they are not making money with them so that's the best solution for the exchanges. Buying no volume coins or no demand at all is like losing all your money into shit things, always but the best and top coins to make profit.

[Tipstar]

Depends on exchange and the coin itself. Most of the popular exchange does have a strict rule for minimum trading volume while some also generates fake volumes to keep the coin floating. The more dubious or less known exchanges lets any coins be listed on for a fee and let them trade the way they want. Also the dex don't control about what is listed and how much it's traded.

Most of these projects are too pushy to list their tokens to exchanges and it is too obvious that they are only looking for profits from investors and the public's investment, this is what makes a lot of changes every year, some even do not have the capital to list the tokens they market in all global market, at least every project has a community that is strong enough to raise volume in the market they are listed, but the project lists their tokens in a market that is not very good and tends to be devoid of big investors, that's what makes the volume / price unstable the price they promised, at least the project project can form a community that helps their project growth until the token is listed on large and small exchanges ..

Reason for that is simple lack of liquidity and demand. Not common? I dont think so even last 2017 anf 2018 there were tokens that have iliquid state due to their none demand on the market. Nothing can stop them from launching new tokens everyday, given the decentralized aspect of cryptocurrency. The only impact of it are shitcoins are increases which does not help the market but just divide the investors money.

[JamalAmal99]

Actually, there are many reasons but simply.
1. The Shitcoin, very natural for this coin has no transactions.
2. The Market is not popular. there are many markets that do have few transactions even though they are class coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple.

[BitcoinPanther]

one simple reason, there is no demand that is why those altcoin have no volume. 

When an exchange is starting, they tend to list any token that took interest in their exchanges, no matter its status.  Just for example, Bittrex when it was starting often go to the project announcement and offer their service for free.  And when the developer subscribed for it then the project is listed.  Others just list projects and announce it to the project's ann thread. Thus many unknown coins are listed on exchanges and become idle because of having no demand at all.

It's not abnormalities, its simply because too many listed coins already present and there are still many projects that are adding on the list. Among these coins there are some that same with uses and idea so only the best among them will be notice. Some were considered shitcoin now as no update or development made. In my case I only focus on top alts or trade with active trading volume. Maybe many does that that makes those no volume in trading unnoticed.

Some exchanges already delisted some of altcoins before, soon more coins will be delisted and it is for better market.

The ICO craze worked and ended up the same way any other stock craze does: the rich and experienced end up with more money while the weak traders and FOMO hunters ended up emptying theirs.

Nothing productive came out ot the ICOs because it was just a cycle that couldn't go on forever. It was something that many knew had to stop but only few took the right actions. A ton of money has been poured in DeFis as well in the past month, how do you think this will end?

Actually, there were a ton of coins before 2019 that had zero volume and no liquidity. I still have a few of them I never got to sell - they're still on some exchanges, but have under $10 volume per day lol. Some of the exchanges hold these coins on there because: 1. the exchange has volume so low they care about every little volume a shitcoin could generate; 2. the shitcoins' devs have paid money to have them listed or 3. the said exchange just doesn't care.

[michellee]

It will only a matter of time before we see that coin will delist on the exchange because they don't have enough volume to trade. The trader will not use that coin to trade because the coin can not give them the profit. But we don't know what the reason for this is, but maybe the developer can pay the exchange to list their coin, and they can expect to make a lot of money from that. It will be the trader who decides to trade that coin or not, and if the trader thinks that the coin is not worth, they will not use it.

[Pasutinmeur]

Those coins were not getting the volume can't attract the buyers. If you are seeing from here https://coinmarketcap.com/new/ and then you will see some new coins have a very small volume.

IMO if volume represented the total demand for the token. In so many cases when the project can't attract the demand and it will result in the project will have very small liquidity and it will always become the main problem that makes the project die too.

[Jancuki]

In my opinion, most new coins this year are not well prepared for their projects, or maybe investors prefer to trade / invest in coins that are already popular. As we know that the number of participants in token sales (ICO / IEO) has been decreasing until now, this indicates that there are many participants who do not believe in token sales at this time, maybe one of the reasons is that most of them end up fraudulent or token prices when listing on the market. the comparison becomes far from the initial sale price.

[Psynthax]

Maybe you are looking at a rather unpopular small exchange? because most of the coins that are listed on popular exchange such as binance usually meets the required minimum volume and if not they got delisted. there are many crappy coins out there that has no liqudity or volume but the one that listed on popular exchange usually have good liquidity and majority of them aren't that hard to liquidate. Also, new coins tend to struggle when it comes to liqudiity but if the devs could succesfully promote it they will have enough volume.

[carter34]

I see a point in what you are saying because a coin with high volume means you have investors or traders on it and that means buying and selling are on with it and you can sell freely because ask is always activated.

Most of the newer projects are lacking liquidity and volume which is alarming and for me it is just a sign of no interest from the market which may be due to many reasons biggest being that market is not finding the project interesting or worth investing. This situation is here from long and i do not agree that it started recently it is being seen for long on various exchanges.
