Exit Liquidity

Definition

Exit liquidity refers to the availability of buyers in a market that allows an investor to sell their assets without significantly impacting the price. In the context of digital assets, it signifies the ease with which large holdings of a cryptocurrency can be converted into fiat currency or other stable assets. High exit liquidity indicates a deep market with sufficient trading volume to absorb selling orders without causing sharp price drops. Conversely, low exit liquidity can lead to significant losses for sellers, especially during periods of market stress. It is a critical factor for institutional investors.
