💧 #Liquidity101: What Is Liquidity in Crypto (and Why It Matters)?
Liquidity = how easily you can buy or sell an asset without causing big price swings.
📈 High Liquidity
✅ Tighter spreads (better prices)
✅ Faster trades
✅ Less volatility
✅ Found on major tokens like BTC, ETH and big CEXs/DEXs
📉 Low Liquidity
⚠️ Bigger price slippage
⚠️ Harder to enter or exit positions
⚠️ Often in smaller-cap coins or new tokens
🔁 Think of liquidity like water in a pool:
🏊 More water = easier to dive in and out.
🥄 Less water = risky to jump—could hurt!
🧠 Tip for Traders:
Always check liquidity before trading, especially with altcoins on DEXs. Big price moves on low liquidity can wipe out gains—or worse.
