Maybe Tier 2 exchanges have a more pronounced appetite for fake volume than Tier 1. On one hand, we have unmatched liquidity on Binance, which arguably aggregates 50% of the entire liquidity supply. Close second comes OKX/Coinbase it doesn’t really matter which. My point is that ALL the rest exchanges combined, so-called Tier2, account for 25% liquidity. So If I were them, compensating for this skew would probably be my priority. 50-25-25 is a classic distribution pattern tested on a wide range of industries. Why it matters? Because maybe 80% of newly launched tokens don’t have access to 75% liquidity placed on just 2 exchanges of a higher caliber. Which makes me think, do we need an umbrella of exchanges this big? This duopoly creates a red ocean, or a red desert to be precise kind of situation, where on one side many exchanges fight for 25% liquidity (hard way) or wash trade (easy way). The other side is projects that can’t afford Binance/OKX/Coinbase What do reports say? Of course they deny it. - T1&T2 centralised exchanges experienced a 775% surge in monthly volume, from ~$250bn in Oct-23, to ~$2.17tn in Apr-24. - Lower-T3 exchanges experienced a 313% increase, from approximately ~$178bn to ~$737bn. Do we feel it? Absolutely not. How much of these volumes are real? No one knows exactly. But I have a feeling it’s a very very low % At the end of the day, everyone wants organic activity on their token. Realistically, only a few can get it. So we have a dank scenario where 1/ VC fund projects 2/ Projects access liquidity on liquid exchanges 3/ VC cash out eventually using real liquidity. No VC no liquidity in a way? Doesn’t look good buying into liquidity. Maybe it is a bit simplistic. Happy to chat more with people who can zoom out more than I do

Dominic L., Sygnum Bank’s Head of Trading, gives an update on this growth, our improved platform and the markets: ✅ 500% increase of derivatives trading volumes Sygnum Bank’s crypto derivatives trading volume has increased by 500 percent compared to the same period last year. "We are going to invest quiet substantially over the coming months into our derivatives offering to make it even more self-serviced and easily accessible to our clients," says Dominic L. ✅ Twice the crypto spot trading volume Across our crypto spot trading business, we have seen an increase of more than 100 percent compared to the same period last year. "Some of that is fuelled by the heighted volatility in the first quarter, most notably driven by the Bitcoin spot ETF approvals but also the Bitcoin halving" says Dominic L. ✅ Improved Sygnum trading platform Over the last 12 months, we have invested heavily into further improving our trading infrastructure, culminating in our recent launch of a completely redesigned trading platform. "Our clients now benefit from even tighter spreads, lower minimum trade sizes and a completely overhauled user experience on our trading platform," says Dominic L. ✅Trading outlook Dominic L. highlights strong interest for both fixed income instruments and delta-neutral derivatives strategies such as the “basis trade”. “In particular on Ether where we see clients positioning for a steepening of the yield curve in anticipation of the upcoming launch of the Ether ETFs,” he says.

💡Liquidation engine for crypto derivatives trading I have written many times that liquidity in crypto markets is at multi-year low. Markets are highly vulnerable to small price moves leading to cascades of sell transactions, all within minutes. Billions of dollars 💵 of liquidations can move Bitcoin price 10%, 20% or even 30%, all within minutes! Traders get liquidated on their positions when they use leverage. Traders open a margin account by signing a "margin agreement" under which the crypto in the account is pledged to the derivatives exchange. The derivatives exchange loans the portion of funds to the trader in order to establish those trades. When the prices move against the trader, the trader is required to deposit additional funds in the margin account to maintain his positions - thus the term "margin call". If the trader's account value falls below the required minimum maintenance level, his position is liquidated in order to cover the margin call. Crypto exchanges use real-time liquidation procedures, the so-called liquidation engines. Liquidation engine is an automated trading strategy that immediately alleviate clients' margin deficiency. The exchange tracks cash in real-time and if at any point the cash balance falls below the margin balance, the liquidation engine automatically liquidates positions and decreases margin deficiency. In general, traders have little to no control over the liquidation engine, but they are held responsible for any losses resulting from this process. Liquidation provides clear benefits to both traders and exchange, as it monitors losses in real-time and prevents unexpected margin deficits. On the other hand, complete automation has its own challenges because a trading algorithm can go awry and cause huge damage. For instance, traders' positions could be automatically liquidated if the exchange has received wrong market data, if network connections are unavailable, if there is failed, incomplete, or delayed computer transmissions, entry error, technical malfunction or disturbance, or if liquidating orders execute at well-off market prices. Modulus is a trading technology company with decades of experience and has created one of the most advanced tech-stack for running a crypto derivatives exchange & sophisticated liquidation engine that safeguards traders positions in a highly volatile markets like crypto.

Catalyst in Motion for Crypto Markets TLDR: Spot bitcoin ETF approvals in the US is the news of the day, but we believe the implications and longer-term ramifications for markets extend well beyond the impact a singular digital asset. At the RWA Summit sponsored by Centrifuge last September, my panel on macro drivers in markets discussed that the volume of applications and building momentum toward US regulatory approval for a spot bitcoin ETF was already a crypto market catalyst-in-motion. Crypto markets have waxed and waned (mostly waxed) since that time, with prospective ETF approvals a factor in market valuations. While near term market dynamics relate to the actual and expected the shift in supply/demand dynamics for crypto assets from an ETF approval - alongside expanded trading volumes and liquidity- we believe the longer term and more meaningful catalyst is the step toward crypto acceptance in the world’s largest financial market and the related catalyst to elevate crypto fluency of institutional and retail market participants. Gaining easy access to cost-effective investment vehicles for digital assets in the US is an important but discreet step forward in the evolution of markets. But, the revolution in markets—which goes far beyond any single digital asset and is powered by the combination blockchain technology, smart contracts and cryptography—is still to come. Unlocking efficiencies, enhancing transparency, and altering risk parameters in market functioning are but of a few of the promises from technological advancements. We believe digital bond issuance, the tokenization of Real World Assets, and direct credit intermediation capabilities between borrowers and investors on DeFi rails will fundamentally shift the cost and frameworks for capital formation, expand client access, alter portfolio construction capabilities, and impact performance & risk management metrics. We suspect that spot bitcoin ETF approvals in the United States will be–with 20/20 hindsight–one of those pivotal moments that unlocks the next generation of catalysts in the development of DeFi and the transformation of market functioning. While markets wait for the revolution in market capabilities, we participate in the evolution of market capabilities with the launch of S&P Global Ratings Stablecoin Stability Assessment, which evaluates the risk of stablecoins depegging from their intended 1:1 relationship with the US Dollar. #crypto #defi #digitalassets Views are my own and do not reflect the views of my employer. https://lnkd.in/eJWUwvza
