Cryptocurrency Market Makers

Market makers play an important role in increasing the accessibility and liquidity of cryptocurrencies to traders, investors and market participants around the world.

Market making in crypto is an activity whereby a trader simultaneously provides liquidity to both buyers and sellers in a financial market. Liquidity is the degree to which an asset can be quickly bought or sold without notably affecting the stability of its price.

Markets that have low liquidity will generally have wide bid-ask spreads in their order books that can increase the volatility of the asset. Therefore it makes it more difficult for traders to get a good price for their trade and have their orders filled. Simply stated, the liquidity of an asset is its availability for buyers and sellers to easily trade it at any given time. Market Making aims to:

  • Increases market liquidity and order book depth
  • Mitigates dramatic price swings
  • Assists with fair price discovery
  • More efficient bid-ask spreads in cryptocurrency exchange order books
  • More orderly entry and exits points for traders
  • Dramatically reduces slippage
  • Helps accommodate large institutional investors

Market makers are firms or individuals that provide liquidity to the market by buying and selling cryptocurrencies to traders, investors and market participants around the world. They buy cryptocurrencies from sellers who are looking to part with them and sell them to buyers who are looking to acquire them. In this way, they help to facilitate trade and ensure that there is always someone on the other side of a trade. Market makers are important because they help to reduce the volatility of prices and provide a source of liquidity to the market.
