Discover Liqnet, a cryptocurrency exchange with a unique liquidity pooling technology. The platform aggregates liquidity from various avenues to solve the problem of the splitting of users and their trading orders by forming a united order book with the best market depth and prices. Liqnet serves both private individuals and legal entities from different jurisdictions.
So, what makes Liqnet Exchange unique? Itās the LEN (Liquidity Exchange Network) feature, which enables it to collect and integrate orders of the exchangeās clients as well as those from third-party platforms into a single order package. This makes all of the orders available for trading by all clients of Liqnet. Besides, the holders of LEN tokens receive privileged terms.
The team behind Liqnet believes that by the end of the decade, global cryptocurrency trading found itself scattered among various platforms, which led to severe fragmentation of liquidity. The lower the liquidity, the lower the average volume of a trading position in comparison to stock and other classical markets. Additionally, in the moments of abrupt market movements, it can be insufficient even for trading low volumes of digital assets.
