Pitch: Nano is interesting both from a direct business and a marketing perspective. In terms of direct business, Nano has a sizeable and growing trading volume. It has clear usecases in being used for payments and remittances. Many of those receiving Nano want to exchange into fiat or other cryptocurrencies. Additionally, many new Nano holders are new to crypto as a whole, and are looking for an exchange to buy Nano on. Nano also has a large and vocal community. Any exchange listing is broadly shared on all sorts of social mediums (Twitter, Reddit) and is one of the best forms of free marketing available.

Nano aims to be a form of money both replacing existing use cases (payments, remittances, donations, etc) and inventing new previously impossible use cases (micropayments, "streaming" value, etc). Thus, use as a system to transfer value is the focus.

Being that Nano is a protocol, to help increase use of the network, it is important to attract entrepeneurs, developers and enthusiasts to help build and improve it. Nano, much like the internet at first, is still hard to use for the vast majority of consumers and businesses. Thus we need builders to make it more accessible so that everyone can use it.
