I've noticed an increasing number of formerly-free token listing sites now charging or attempting to up-sell project owners following submission.
Worse, I've seen listing sites offer a free listing, publicly rate the project poorly (like 1.5 out of 5), and when the project owner reaches out to ask why/address concerns, they're sold they can request a "deeper review" for the low, low price of 1 BTC. (Putting Bitcoin Market Journal on blast.)
There is lots of stuff like this. I'll be writing about this in greater detail soon.
In the interim, I've decided to launch my own token listing site and pledge to never ask for a dime. No promoted listings, no advertising, no anything.
We're building our listings now so if you have something to submit, head to http://www.tokenlist.xyz/submit-a-sale/ . Would also appreciate feedback - I tried to find the right amount of pertinent (actionable, interesting) information so that we don't overload and it remains a reasonable amount of work for me (and my group) to maintain these listings.
