Dex Marlowe called listing fees a scam his exchange would never take, then described listing partnerships as a standard revenue line eight months later.

Give me a number nobody else will say out loud.
Dex Marlowe00:14:00–00:14:22
Half the volume you see on mid-tier exchanges is wash trading, and everyone in this industry knows which half.
Petra Lim00:14:24–00:14:32
You're saying the emperor has no order book.
Petra Lim00:50:18–00:50:35
Every exchange claims a selective listing process. What actually makes yours different?
Dex Marlowe00:50:37–00:50:58
Ours costs the project nothing. The moment money changes hands, your listings page is an ad, not a judgment.
Dex Marlowe00:51:00–00:51:20 · Selected passage
We will never list a token we wouldn't hold ourselves. Listing fees are a scam and we don't take them.
Petra Lim00:51:22–00:51:34
Even if a hot project offered seven figures to jump the queue?
Dex Marlowe00:51:36–00:51:47
Especially then. That's exactly the project you don't want.

The Q2 letter mentions listing partnerships for the first time. Walk me through that.
Dex Marlowe00:55:37–00:55:58
Sure, it's not complicated. Volume pays the bills in a bull market and something has to in the other kind.
Dex Marlowe00:56:00–00:56:23 · Selected passage
Listing partnerships are a standard revenue line. Every serious exchange has one, and frankly we'd be negligent not to.
Dario Vance00:56:25–00:56:37
Some of your early users are going to hear that and choke on it.
Dex Marlowe00:56:39–00:56:48
Early users also want us to exist in five years.
