📌 What is Crypto Arbitrage?
Arbitrage means you profit from price differences for the same asset on different exchanges or markets — buying low in one place, selling high in another, almost instantly.
Goal: Capture small, low-risk profits repeatedly by exploiting inefficiencies.

🧩 How Does Crypto Arbitrage Work?
Example:
BTC price on Binance: $60,000
BTC price on Kraken: $60,150
You buy 1 BTC on Binance, sell 1 BTC on Kraken → instant $150 profit (minus fees).

⚡ Types of Crypto Arbitrage
1️⃣ Simple Exchange Arbitrage
Buy on Exchange A where it’s cheaper, sell on Exchange B where it’s more expensive.
Works best with major coins (BTC, ETH) because they have enough liquidity.
---
2️⃣ Triangular Arbitrage
Exploit price differences between 3 pairs on the same exchange.
3️⃣ Decentralized Arbitrage
Arbitrage between DEXs (like Uniswap, SushiSwap) and CEXs (like Binance).
DeFi creates opportunities because DEX prices often lag behind CEXs.
4️⃣ Cross-border Arbitrage
Price differences between exchanges in different countries (e.g., ‘Kimchi Premium’ in South Korea).
