You can go for Binance where volume is good.
maybe on PROBIT, relative new exchange, maybe dont need such big amount coins pay for it… an there have so many new coins to exchange to NIM. Bitrex wil be nice too.
I second that a new listing should be an upgrade to kucoin. While it’s possible that it might dilute the volume, it also introduces arbitrage opportunity, which again increases volume. Overall I would see it as a net gain.
Although I’m not a fan of binance personally, but for the moment they are the Kings of volume. If it’s possible to get listed on reasonable terms why not. But as a proposal from my side, I’ll repeat my offer from this post: List of Exchanges and Informative Sites
Kraken as it has a great reputation. Recently I was surprised to find out that they offer direct staking from their exchange (Currently only tezos though). Granted that Nimiq has broad plans and a great team, possbile it might be an increased interest for Kraken team to get involved. Also would be a great starting place for nimiq 2.0

I think as soon as the technology is mature, exchanges like Coinbase or Bittrex come naturally. Of course, the community should always generate attention, together we are strong. Before Nimiq is really listed on exchanges like something Binance, the technology should work flawlessly. Nimiq the most user-friendly coin will then generate a massive surge in mass adoption. When Oasis starts, people no longer need commercial exchanges, everything runs directly through their bank account. That’s exactly what matters, stock exchanges are simply too complex for most people and only a small number of people really understand them. Exciting times are waiting for the Nimiq community, really very exciting times. Who creates trends, it is always the youth. These are the early adapters and that’s exactly what we should focus on. As soon as the youth use a blockchain platform like Nimiq every day, the network effect becomes active. Friends tell their friends. We have to win the youth, so we also win the general population. A payment app alone is too boring, it takes fun and games. A whole new blockchain game would attract crowds. Just what it should look like, I haven’t quite figured it out yet. No casino game or card game. Exchanges only come as soon as enthusiastic users recommend Nimiq to their friends.

No need to wait Albatross or Oasis launched.

“No need to wait Albatross or Oasis launched”; Why do you say so? Statements like this ought to be substantiated.
It’s just my opinion. Many members here suggested Nimiq is better listed on a new exchange after Albatross and/or Oasis launched.
To spread Nimiq in the world and to get mass adoption can be done any time.
Personal motivation why it’s better to find a new exchange after Albatross:
Albatross will be a hard-fork since it will switch to a new consensus algorithm. All the exchanges that have a NIM pair (so including the new ones if you plan to get listed somewhere ) need to transition as well. Exchanges can charge costs for this. Possible way to mitigate this is by asking beforehand what their policy is on this subject.
Personal motivation why it’s better to find a new exchange after OASIS:
how I see OASIS now, with all the information shared so far, is that OASIS will disrupt the exchanges as we all now them today. You go from handing over your assets to a third party with all the risks involved (hacks, exits, etc…) to a system where you never at any moment lose custody over your funds. Before we know OASIS’s true possibilities, I wonder whether it’s a good thing to invest in something that you basically want to disrupt.
On the other hand, current issue is that Nimiq is having a low liquidity. So from that perspective I think it’s mandatory since you widen the scope for people to interact with Nimiq. Also getting listed somewhere is promotion for that specific ecosystem.

Oasis is not going to disrupt exchanges, it is a bridge between crypto and FIAT, so exchanges potentially can be interested to use it in case of transferring FIAT to Crypto and Crypto to FIAT. So, personally I see Oasis as a driver to list Nimiq on new exchanges.
Another point is multi-tasking, the team should be able to move things forward in parallel before Oasis/Albatross are in production. We definitely should start negotiations and integrations with reputable exchanges now, just to be in time with Oasis/Albatross.
In my opinion, we need to complete a short-list of exchanges that fit to Nimiq requirements - reputable, supports stacking etc.

It’s a tradeoff, IMHO. Let’s say listing fees for a coin come from the marketing budget (which is perfectly ok), but you can use that budget to do things like giveaways, contests, local meetups, etc. (aka guerrilla marketing), which could bring more people to use those exchanges that already list your coin and more liquidity, without paying for new exchange listings that could come later for free anyway when the coin has more volume.
CoinOne exchange, suggested by community member @maxc0001
Just a thought… Won’t a listing of the token in a major exchange make it more known and therefore boost the daily trade? Binance would be a great choice as it’s very popular.
If we don’t take this step forward, in my opinion, the coin will die slowly on kucoin. I saw Bitboy’s youtube video about nimiq having a 1000x potential. How can achieve that only on kucoin/hotbit with such low volumes?
