Web3 Asset Data Platform Report Highlights Challenges in Crypto Exchange Listings

RootData, a Web3 asset data platform, has released the '2026 Crypto Exchange Listing Decision Survey Report.' According to ChainCatcher, the survey collected 313 valid responses, primarily from exchange listing business development professionals, researchers, and listing committee members, with over 69% directly involved in decision-making. Approximately 50% of respondents evaluate more than 50 projects annually, facing significant information overload. Over 30% indicated that data delays could lead to decision-making errors or implicit downgrades, with project information transparency being a major obstacle to listing efficiency. Half of the respondents stated that a lack of transparency triggers defensive due diligence, prolonging review times, and 16.7% would halt or reject listings altogether. Additionally, 88.9% of respondents require cross-verification of data across multiple platforms. The report emphasizes that the credibility of Web3 projects relies on institutional investors, valuations, teams, and roadmaps, necessitating third-party platforms to prevent fraud. A significant 91.4% of respondents believe that comprehensive information from platforms like RootData can enhance listing efficiency by at least 30%. Furthermore, over 80.6% agree that data platforms are crucial for decision-making, as opaque information not only hinders project capitalization but also undermines overall industry trust. The report calls on project teams to improve information disclosure and utilize tools like RootData to build a credit system, thereby accelerating the listing process.
