Liquidity Silos

Definition

Liquidity silos refer to fragmented pools of capital within the digital asset market that are isolated from one another, hindering efficient price discovery and trading. This occurs when a specific asset is primarily traded on a limited number of platforms or within particular ecosystems, preventing free flow of capital across the entire market. Such fragmentation can lead to price discrepancies and reduced market depth. Overcoming these divisions is essential for market efficiency and broader participation.
