Why list on BitMart
BitMart is one of the most frequently chosen digital asset exchanges for token projects’ first listings. There are a couple of reasons why.
Listing on mainstream cryptocurrency platforms may be a huge financial burden for a project – it may cost up to 1 mln USD. However, BitMart is known in the crypto industry for its rather affordable listing fees. And that makes many token projects decide to sign the listing agreement with BitMart first.
BitMart’s declared user base (9 mln+) allows projects to attract the attention of crypto investors when they share the news about the listing partnership with the platform.
At the moment of writing the article (January 2024), CoinGecko allows the trading of more than 950 tokens that are listed on the platform, with new assets added every quarter. This means that the platform’s strategy is to list many startup token projects, which increases the chance of a successful listing.
BitMart’s score metrics
When choosing a venue for listing, it is important to check its reputation and general rank in comparison to other exchanges. A good choice is to check how CoinGecko, CoinMarketCap and Nomics rate the exchange.
CoinGecko uses Trust Score, a rating algorithm evaluating the legitimacy of an exchange’s trading volume. Trust Score is calculated on a range of metrics such as liquidity, scale of operations, cybersecurity score, and more. BitMart’s Trust Score is 8. Only 10% out of more than 500 cryptocurrency platforms have Trust Score 8 or higher.
CoinMarketCap’s Exchange Score is based on the following factors:
- Web Traffic
- Average Liquidity & Volume
- the Confidence that the volume reported by an exchange is legitimate. Weights are assigned to the above-mentioned factors and a score from 0.0 to 10.0 is given to the Spot Exchange.
BitMart’s Exchange Score is 5.5.
Nomics’ metric is called Impact Score – and represents an exchange’s influence on the price of assets it trades. The score is a combination of web traffic, volume, and other factors.
BitMart’s Impact Score is 6.94.
Listing requirements
When you apply for a listing, the legal team will examine your documentation, which usually includes the certificate of incorporation, legal id of team members, whitepaper, etc. In certain cases (like stable coins), they may require additional documents. You will be asked to provide key information about your token, team, and community. This information should persuade the exchange team that your token will be successful after listing. Take the time to do it well.
The project review consists of several key points:
- Project Introduction: The token issuer should write a short summary of what the project does or fill out a form providing necessary project details and information for review by the exchange’s team.
- Token Overview: This includes chain type (BSC, ERC, TRC, etc.), blockchain explorer, smart contract address, use of token, etc.
- Token Economics and Fundraising: You will be asked to provide information about token distribution, token unlock schedule, or conducted token sales.
- Marketing Strategy and Community: To check the user engagement and quality of business partnerships, the exchange will check community hubs with their main geographies. They check the website, Twitter, and Telegram channels, including the number of followers and likes per post. Projects should also introduce strategic partnerships with expected results.
- Project Team: Introduce your team members with bio descriptions of the Founder/CEO and core members, including Linkedin profile links..
- Listing Plan: Outline your plan for listing the token. If it’s not your debut, you’ll need to provide the exchange team with information on your existing markets and trading volumes on them.
- Market Maker: You must specify a market maker who works with you and provides initial liquidity during the listing.
By addressing these points thoroughly, you increase the probability of the approval and entry into negotiations.

Why Empirica?
Listing is more than just negotiating fees with an exchange and successful listings require active involvement of a market maker. We know how to go through this process smoothly.
An example of a successful token listing that we supported on three exchanges as the only market maker
We are partnering with a web3 gaming startup that introduced a product with solid fundamentals and a clear use case. We supported token debuts on chosen centralized exchanges by providing initial deep liquidity for substantial trades from the first seconds it went public. Our role was to support token debut on three centralized exchanges as the only market maker responsible for listings.
The price increased up to 250% within the first week after listing, and remains stable after the first month. Since the listing, volumes have begun to rise significantly, reflecting a healthy market and good trading conditions (see the Price and Volume chart).
Liquidity on BitMart
We partner with a mature token project with a global recognition listed on over 30 markets with significant trading volumes. We are supporting liquidity also on BitMart exchange.
