Market microstructure examines the mechanics and processes of trading within financial markets. It investigates how prices are formed, how orders are executed, and the factors influencing liquidity and trading costs. This field of study is critical for understanding the operational aspects of digital asset exchanges and the behavior of market participants. It provides a granular view of the forces that shape asset prices.
Context
Current analyses of market microstructure in digital assets focus on the efficiency of decentralized exchanges (DEXs), the impact of algorithmic trading, and the prevalence of predatory trading practices. Debates are active regarding the optimal design of order books and the effectiveness of various mechanisms for mitigating market manipulation. Future research is likely to concentrate on the unique characteristics of blockchain-based trading systems and their implications for price discovery and systemic stability.
