You do realize this is the Monero thread, right?  

Yep - peer to peer but the code must be on GIT and people with a lot more intelligence than me must vet the software has no theft mechanism nor ability to inject malicious code into the system.

Now there is an IPO that I would like to get in on.

EDIT: Ideally there would be more than 1 choice to keep a competitive balance.

Only altcoin exchanges we are missing right now is btc38 and cryptsy, we should get monero added to that! Spoke to fluffypony also on IRC and the GUI wallet is taking some time because the lack of funds.. If more funds would be donated they could hire skilled developers to speed up the work.

That reminds me, I nominated it at the following link last week, and it needs votes: http://cryptmarketcap.com/marketcap/vote-coin/

I just don´t see the reason for voting.
We are top 5 volume like daily, every sane business would just add it to get a pie of the volume and earn money with trading fees.

You got a good point there, I think they will notice that they can benefit from monero (because of the high trading volume). Maybe a email to them where monero would be elaborated would push them in the right direction 

I have a different way to look at it.
You should never have to vote to get a coin listed and you should certainly never pay. Exchanges will list any coin with merit because they want to make a buck. The pump and dumpers love to vote up coins to unload them. I despise the entire structure because it smacks of corruption from the getgo.

How about turning it around? Exchanges should be paying developers to list coins or paying them a cut of each transaction. I am not a fan of the evil known as exchanges. I long for the day when exchanges are decentralized through a peer-to-per network.

Maybe something some core members can do? My english is not that good and wouldn't want to sent an email full with gramatical errors :p

BTC38 is a Chinese exchange so what you really need is QQ groups making noise about it.
