Liquidity Efficiency

Definition

Liquidity efficiency refers to the ease and cost-effectiveness with which an asset can be converted into cash without significantly affecting its price. In financial markets, including those for digital assets, high liquidity efficiency indicates that trades can be executed quickly and at prices close to the last traded price, with minimal slippage. This characteristic is crucial for market participants to enter and exit positions without incurring substantial transaction costs or price impacts. It reflects a robust market with sufficient buyers and sellers.
