Listing fragmentation occurs when a single digital asset is traded across numerous exchanges and platforms, each with its own liquidity pool and pricing. This dispersal of trading volume can lead to price discrepancies, reduced market depth on individual venues, and less efficient price discovery. Such fragmentation can complicate arbitrage opportunities and make it more challenging for large orders to execute without significant price impact. It presents a hurdle for market efficiency and transparency.
