== Exchange Communication ==
This page shall provide information and guidelines on how to bring the Ravencoin to an exchange.
It should be noted that the process can require some work, but getting listed in an exchange
In the following a couple of steps which You typically find in an application.
=== Is Ravencoin a security? ===
No. Some exchanges require a legal assessment addressing whether RVN is a security under U.S law before accepting an application for listing. An article on this issue has been compiled by @K27#1391 and is available [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Se_GqusXcobgdVGwa8x55oQjJfTFHkHUQTxuqPcOmbA here]. This document can be used for exchanges requesting a legal memorandum in the application process.
=== What is Ravencoin ===
Ravencoin was first announced in October of 2017 at MIT. In the months leading to the official launch on January 3rd, 2018, Ravencoin gained support at several conferences and colleges. Self-described as "...a use case specific blockchain designed to carry statements of truth about who owns what asset" Ravencoin's naming pays homage to the ravens of the fictional world of Westeros. In the two months after its launch, Ravencoin has seen an exponential groundswell of community support, including the support of the larger mining community. Ravencoin is the first coin to leverage the ASIC resistant x16r algorithm and is a completely Proof of Work(PoW) coin. No ICO was undertaken, and neither was a pre-mine utilized. Ravencoin has attracted many individuals to the community and project due to its fair and grassroots hallmarks of the original Bitcoin launch. Ravencoin differs however from Bitcoin with an increased block reward size, and a faster block time, features which developers have alluded to setting the groundwork for Ethereum style asset transfers and tokens.
Overstock.com has been investing time and developers to contribute to the project, and even mining the token.
ASIC resistance and a wider and fairer distribution is another advantage of Ravencoin. By this time period in Bitcoin's history, the coin had less than a dozen miners - RVN has thousands. Ravencoin is one of the most widely distributed coins - if not THE most.
=== Who is the CEO ===
As RVN is an open source project there is no CEO. Individual persons are presenting and can bring applications forward though.
=== What is an NDA and can I sign it? ===
The NDA - a non-disclosure agreement - is an agreement to restrict information from spreading outside the agreeing parties. A company uses NDAs to limit information spreading. Afterall listing on an exchange is a negotiation. The NDA is limiting the information spread around that process. If You sign an NDA, this also means that You need to be cautious what information to be spread also to the community.
