+We use this repository for accepting token listings on [superbridge.app](https://superbridge.app).

+To get your token listed, simply open a PR adding the relevant file to the `data` folder. Checks will run to ensure this token is a valid and bridgeable token. For reference, please see [the example](https://github.com/superbridgeapp/token-lists/pull/11) of a valid token listing PR.
+
+Please note that for most token listings your PR will need either,
