Why are institutions waiting on the crypto market? Liquidity is the real bottleneck.

Question

【Chain Wen】The voices of market makers often reflect the real issues in the market. According to industry insiders, many institutions are actually quite interested in crypto assets, but what truly holds them back is not price volatility, but insufficient market depth.

In simple terms, liquidity problems are structural. When you want to invest large sums of money, the dilemma you face is quite awkward—you want to buy the dip but are afraid of causing a crash; to hedge risks, the available trading pairs and liquidity depth are simply not enough. As a result, new capital entrants are all on the sidelines, extremely cautious.

This is not unfounded. Large fluctuations? The crypto market has long been accustomed to that. What really makes institutions hesitate is that when you want to execute large trades at reasonable prices, the market simply cannot absorb the order. If this structural bottleneck is not addressed, attracting large funds will have to wait longer.

Liquidity depth is really a common topic, but the cautiousness of institutions indeed indicates a significant issue. Someone needs to expand the market size.

Retail investors have already been hammered once, now it's the turn of large funds to consider their options. It feels like this cycle needs to be broken.

Honestly, the on-chain depth is still far from the liquidity of centralized exchanges. How can this be solved?

Instead of waiting, let's see if there are new market makers or liquidity protocols that can come to the rescue. Otherwise, we'll always be on the sidelines.

It's also good that institutions are cautious, as it gives us retail investors a chance to catch our breath.

Liquidity is king, and there's no denying that. Large institutions want to enter the market mainly to scalp profits, but what if they accidentally cause a dump with a sudden move? That’s indeed awkward.

It's easy to say, but if you really want to move large amounts of capital, the market depth simply isn't enough. Structural issues can't be solved by one or two exchanges.

---

So, this is the deadlock of the crypto market — everyone is waiting to come in, everyone is watching from the sidelines, and in the end, no one can get in.

---

The issue of insufficient depth has been a common topic for a long time, but the problem is that no one is really working to improve it.

---

Institutional hesitation? I think it's just an excuse. If there were real opportunities to make money, who would care about market depth?

---

The core issue is the lack of participation from major players; small retail orders simply can't fill this gap.

Hey, at the end of the day, it's just that the market depth is too shallow. Institutions can't get in even if they want to.

---

Liquidity has been a longstanding problem; it really needs to be addressed.

---

Large transactions at reasonable prices? Haha, that's just a dream.

---

I just want to know when this deadlock will be resolved. Will it take forever?

---

Institutions aren't fools; nobody wants to lose money by dumping the market.

---

Is the spot market not deep enough? Futures come in to fill the gap? But someone has to play, right?

---

So ultimately, it's still a lack of sufficient liquidity, which is quite awkward.

---

Wait, wait, when will big funds actually dare to enter the market?

---

Market makers say so too; it seems the problem is indeed right here.

Why are institutions waiting on the crypto market? Liquidity is the real bottleneck.
