Liquidity
By CoinGecko | Updated on Jun 13, 2023
Liquidity is a measure of resource sufficiency as it concerns a cryptocurrency market or a custodial institution. For tradable assets, it translates to investors’ freedom to make trades in any direction without significant slippage. For custodial institutions, it is the ability to satisfy withdrawal requests without significant delays or friction. A sufficiently liquid market or institution should be able to sustain this in harsh market conditions.
