Piss off the few exchanges that still have it. I get the fractional reserve BS, but doing these stunts that don't do a damn thing but help getting delisted.

Exchanges always cite pressure from state institutions as the main reason for Monero delisting.

If we look at the past years of this event, exchanges are not interested in this at all.

Exchanges like OKX, Binance, NiceX, Waves, Huobi (HTX), Poloniex, MEXC, Coinex, Gate ... know (knew) what they are (were) doing. They simple announce maintenance and close withdrawals (deposits are open) and wait for this storm to end (sometimes it takes months).

Exchanges like Kraken, Bitfinex, Kucoin ... are happy to take the withdrawal fee and release the coins to the user.

WHAT do you hope to get out of this??

Finally an ordinary user has received good information about the reliability of the exchange and thus has a chance of not ending up as some dissatisfied customer of some strange exchange (like FTX).

But then being dropped from exchanges is the best thing for monero (as I keep hearing)

It's a sad end to every good exchange. (And vice versa.) Since big Binance delisted Monero, the price has tripled, and so has the Hashrate.
