Liquidity hubs are centralized or decentralized platforms that aggregate trading volume and capital from various sources to facilitate efficient asset exchange. These platforms serve as crucial points where market participants can access deeper pools of assets for buying and selling. They help reduce price slippage and improve execution for large orders. In decentralized finance (DeFi), automated market makers (AMMs) often function as such hubs.
Context

A critical discussion involves the security risks associated with concentrating liquidity and the potential for market manipulation. Future developments will focus on improving the capital efficiency of these hubs and enhancing their ability to operate across different blockchain networks.
