I have thought a bit about this mysterious top 5 exchange. I can't know it but something doesn't add up. To make it as short as possible:
Given reason why it needs more time to get SVD listed on that exchange is, quoting tobson2 - telegram:
"(...) the exchange decided to update it's listing policy in the next weeks, so it might take more time than expected to get started" Yassir also said that during the AMA and even explicitly added that this exchange wants to raise their listing standards to assure a higher quality.
Some things to consider:
1) The top 5 exchange was initially announced on March 5 and communicated as "secured":
“Securing a second well-known exchange shows that SVD is an attractive token for the large crypto exchanges. This allows us to create trading opportunities for token buyers on the best exchanges, which is good for liquidity. “ says Dr. Yassin Hankir, founder and CEO of savedroid. 2) The last AMA was 14 days ago but this explanation is new, what means, if the given explanation is true: This certain exchange made the decision to change their policy and to raise their standards and to delay the listing of SVD during the last two weeks, or Yassir didn't communicate that while it already was known (unlikely).
3) If that exchange was already
secured in early March, why would a change of policy should have any effect on Savedroid now? Why is it necessary that Savedroid has to meet the new requirements?
4) Most important and the key question: If this certain exchange has to delay the listing of SVD because they change their listing-policies to raise their own standards, how can the Savedroid-Team still be totally sure that it will just be a delay but not a rejection? How can they know that they'll meet these new requirements?
5) On Twitter it's visible that not one of the top5-exchanges shows an interruption when it's about listings.
With other words: This scenario can only be the whole truth if the announcement in March wasn't as safe as it was communicated since Savedroid will have to meet the new requirements/higher listing standards now. And a delay only makes sense if it's
not safe that Savedroid will meet those new requirements. But if it's not safe it's not honest to communicate it as "just a delay".
I can't know it but this whole explanation doesn't make that much sense in my opinion and I wouldn't be surprised if it's just about buying time and if there would be an explanation in a few weeks, like "damn, they've raised the quality standards too high and now they want to have so much money, we will need more time". By the way: Tobson2 confirmed on a question that they didn't have to pay at all to get that listing and also that the exchange didn't back off because of their PR-Stunt - but now they have to meet new requirements. I really don't get the logic here...
