#Liquidity101 Liquidity 101 – What is liquidity that everyone keeps mentioning?”
In crypto, liquidity is a vital factor. Simply put, liquidity is the ability to buy and sell quickly without causing significant price fluctuations.
For example: You want to sell 1,000 USDT – if that coin has high liquidity, you sell it immediately without slippage. But if the coin has low liquidity, you sell one order and the price drops like a mood drop because… there’s no one to buy it in time!
High liquidity = many buyers and sellers = less risk.
Low liquidity = easy to get “stuck” or suffer from bad prices.
When investing, don’t just look at the chart – pay attention to trading volume, listed exchanges, and popularity. Good liquidity allows you to enter and exit comfortably without waiting for a “rescue.”
