If An Altcoin is Not Listed on Coinmarketcap - Will it Never be?

If An Altcoin is Not Listed on Coinmarketcap - Will it Never be?

As much as I have been told not to waste my time with meme coins, or stay away from certain altcoins, but its really hard to absolutely ignore them, especially when one meme coin hits the market every day.

Now I also know that whatever is listed on Coinmarketcap is the real deal... so if I am researching a coin and it is not listed there, are there any chances of it ever being listed... or should I just let it go?

What do you all have to say?

What do you mean by "real deal"? It's just an indexer and everyone can be listed there if they want. It just takes some time. If coin or token is let's say month old and it isn't listed there, that's conserning, because it just means that devs aren't serious about it. But it's not like being listed in there is a sign of not being a scam. Most of the coins ever listed there have died or are slow rugged and living some zombie half life.

In short: being listed in coinmarketcap doesn't really mean anything, but not being listed means that it's a new project or that devs don't give a crap.

Not necessarily true that being listed on Coinmarketcap means legitimacy. I bought a presale which was listed there, then on launch/claim day they rug pulled us. Meme coins are a big risk any way buddy, you have to be very lucky to hit the right ones.

these coin lists sites are never a reliable source of information to begin with, they seek traffic and the only way of doing that is by endlessly listing more and more new coins, catering to the community of those coin and never getting too deep into reviewing each and every coin in their site.

in fact, there were several occasions where sites like CMC and coingecko just got the information about the coin they were listing wrong and they need months to just fix it.
though, despite all those mistakes, I think CMC listing is essential.

Not all new altcoins will be immediately listed on the coinmarketcap platform, obviously many people have wasted their time on meme coins which were only created to be like a lottery, if an altcoin wants to be included in the main CMC list it must meet the relevant requirements. There are also coins that can be counterfeited by joining the CMC which is discussed in a Telegram group even though it is just a trick to attract members. The coins listed on CoinMarketcap are official with the applicable regulations, you have to be more careful with new projects to see their development. just ignore it.

But we cant really be able to deny that when it comes to the situation on where majority or the community would really be always looking about being listed on coinmarketcap or coingecko specially into those
times on where it is really just that staring. Getting listed or be shown into these index type of sites will really be creating out such kind of impression that will be adding up that positivity towards the project.
Its true that this isnt something a guarantee that will really be having that success in speaking about coins value or into its price. This is why as an investor then you shouldnt really be that making yourself
having that kind of boost up whenever you've seen these things. Its always recommended that you should really be investing on something that you can afford to lose.

Never ever make yourself that be that going all in with new coins in the market. Although you cant really be able to stop someone on making those all in investment specially into those
early times or moments on which we know that when it comes into this aspect then you cant be able to avoid thinking about having those early entry on which if you do able to hit
up the right project then it would really be bringing out that huge profits and could possibly make you rich.

We all know that not all Altcoin Will be listed immediately, but it is usually scary when you invest in a coin that is not listed on the market cap it is something to be scared of because I feel that are listing on market cap or coingeko gives it a background or something to be traced back to,  How do you get information about them and associates exchange that are listed on little things we need to consider before investing in projects, that might easily get liquidated and run out of value. I feel one of the best ways to get people attention to buy a particular alt coin listed on CMC that way to get people attention and the interest will be at the peak, but the situation you can not even trace what is going on on the market, project my end up dying. The best thing is to get it listed on CMC then from there, they can actually make provisions to get it listed on all the popular exchanges that is one of the way to get people to buy on exchanges like KuCoin and binance so the team have to put things like this to their plan when working on a project. And not just jumping steps because they want to make money in crypto when you jump steps you will be the one losing.

There are still two possibilities, it could be listed at some point or not at all, it depends on the developer himself. Still, I always look for coins that are listed on coinmarketcap because it can be a reference as a support in research

[Naufalradit]

In terms of popularity, of course altcoins are still far above average. This is what causes altcoins to become unpopular so they are not listed on CoinMarketCap. and I think this takes quite a long time. and it will depend on the interest of investors. If the project is promising enough, I think it is not impossible that it will become a good coin.

Well i understand what you wanted to say, most of the investors look at the coin on cmc to known more about it for the records if soon they will invest on that particular coin, most of the coin there is legit because it needs a lot of requirements before the coin list in there, if the coin you wanted to invest is not listed in there then think twice or make more research for good don't decide to invest too early.

Project owners can register their projects on coinmarketcap easily, as long as they meet the requirements given by the platform itself to developers who want to register their projects.
There are also many coins that are not on coinmarketcap but are on other platforms such as coingecko for example, you can search for it yourself.

Not necessarily the coin is listed unless the developer registers it there, while seeing the original or not you have to pay attention again, it could be a forgery, you can see the project description directly if it is available on a platform, and see the smart contract to verify that it is the correct coin or not.

right , Not all coins listed on Coinmarket are genuine, even though they are listed and have smart contracts, we must be vigilant and careful because there are many meme coins that have a big risk in terms of price.

I think it makes sense for people to expect projects to be listed like that, I mean if you are not even listed there, then why would I invest into it?

Think about how small and not trusted a project have to be to not even get listed at this, I have worked with a few projects before and got them listed in like five days, imagine how easy it must be that someone like me, who is not like some special person, contacted them and got it listed in five days, sometimes as quickly as 20 minutes but that was later on when I knew a person there who could check it, also I got some rejected there too, so not like I knew a way to bribe them or anything, I just simply contacted them via telegram, made them check the project, and if they find it fine and not scam, they listed, if they were suspicious about scam then they rejected it, quickest was 20 minutes, slowest was 5 days and all the rejections were quicker than 5 days.

All of this experience I had, made me realize that I will never invest into anything that isn't listed there. First of all its easy, so if they are not listed there are two possible reasons, either they do not know how to get listed which means they are not good at all, any person with brain would know how to contact them, its literally on their page, or these places found it risky and that's why they never listed them.

not all coins listed on CMC are good coins, many coins listed on CMC end up in scams, because again CMC is a coin listing platform, so users only need to pay to list their coins there. and if the coin you invest in is not listed there, then at any time your coin can be listed there if the team of the coin pays and lets CMC verify their coin, and it shouldn't be a complicated process.

There used to be those days when projects have to struggle to get listed on Coin market cap. In fact it used to be a bullish news for projects back then but things are now easier for projects. I think they just apply with some requirements and then they see it after some days. There are some projects that are even listed on market cap already without trading volume, so I'm not sure if this is really helpful tip to avoid a bad project.

Some projects lowkey back then don't get on coin market cap and Coingecko and if you have the luck to buy before listing, it will be in demand as people do look into this platform to buy their new coins but as I said, all these are things of the past, not longer way to justify good or bad projects.

You're putting way too much importance in listings. It's not that important, nor does it have/need to be a metric you'd use for the importance of a coin. Listing coins usually just takes time since whatever requirements they need usually just needs that, time, so it's easy for most projects to actually accommodate these requirements.

Still, if they're not on coinmarket yet, wait for a bit. Or check their road map, they may have some other schedule for it or are waiting for the product to actually be presentable to users.

[Dr.Osh]

It all depends on the project in question. In fact, there are a lot of meme coins on CMC right now. However, for early development, it is very normal for a coin not to be listed on CMC. However, if the project has been around for a long time, then it is questionable. Because, many projects have even released their coins on CMC before they are listed on any market.

I don't get why it is so hard to ignore memecoins? I have been doing it for 10 years now, started with Doge, and been ignoring it when they got this famous as well. Since 2021 and Elon Musk tweeted about Doge, everyone and their grandmother is building a new meme, which shows that it is not a good project to invest into because all those people are just interested in your money and not interested in making you any money at all. Why would it be so hard to ignore them?

I mean I haven't put a single dime into any of them, and didn't had any hard time about it, I just simply do not check any memecoin, as soon as I see one, I just move on and not even take a look, I ignore it that way. Do that, ignore it, it is not hard.

There are some good alts that are not on cmc but on cg

the two always have their own advantages and disadvantages, it really shows when there are suddenly certain meme coin that surged and reached hundred millions market cap, sometime the data is not available in coinmarketcap or in coingecko, so in my opinion a coin that is not listed in coinmarketcap isn't necessarily a bad coin, maybe they are just on the process of review though I know for a fact that coinmarketcap review aren't that strict.

if any, i will care more about listing in the exchange, since they are like the gate to bigger capital inflow which could help raise value of a coin, since all that matter is a price increase right? so exchange is the key.
if a coin just listed in some random low quality exchange, then they're done for. bigger exchange won't list them to save themselves from their reputation being stained.

The thread is turning out to be complicated day by day ... i get a few posts telling me to prioritize the Cmc list just like you have mentioned that most of the coins there are legit... whereas many are saying that its easier to make way to the list... What should one believe in

I feel like if you could get listed at a big place, then you will be listed at CMC already, you are not going to get listed at a good decent exchange without being listed at CMC, it's so much easier to get listed there first.

I know that the idea seems like a good one, and it's true if you could get listed at some place like gate for example then you are going to be fine, but the reality is that we are not going to see any project that sucks so bad that they can't even get listed at CMC but good enough that it has volume potential enough to get listed at an exchange. This is why I think it will not happen, plus if they had any money to pay the exchange, they would have enough money to get listed at CMC at the same time as well.
