Open Market Creation

Definition

Open market creation refers to the establishment of accessible trading venues where anyone can participate without restrictive barriers. This concept contrasts with closed or permissioned markets by promoting broad access, transparency, and often self-governance among participants. In the digital asset space, decentralized exchanges (DEXs) exemplify open market creation, allowing peer-to-peer trading without centralized custodians. Such markets aim to reduce entry barriers, foster liquidity, and enhance price discovery through broader participation.
