Clearing efficiency describes the speed and effectiveness with which financial transactions are reconciled and settled within a system. In digital asset markets, it relates to how quickly trades are confirmed and funds are moved between parties, minimizing counterparty risk. Higher clearing efficiency implies fewer delays and reduced operational costs for market participants.
Context

Debates often focus on whether blockchain-based clearing mechanisms can surpass traditional systems in speed and cost, especially for cross-border payments. A key development to observe is the continued advancement of atomic swaps and decentralized clearing protocols designed to improve this efficiency.
