Onchain liquidity refers to the ease with which a digital asset can be converted into another asset directly on a blockchain network, typically through decentralized exchanges (DEXs) or automated market makers (AMMs). It is measured by the depth of available assets in liquidity pools and the ability to execute large trades without significant price impact. High onchain liquidity is essential for efficient trading and price stability in decentralized finance. It minimizes slippage for participants.
