Liquidity Intermediate
Liquidity describes how easily you can buy or sell an asset without shifting its price much.
Deeply liquid coins like Bitcoin can absorb big trades with little slippage; thinly traded tokens can lurch on modest volume, making it harder to get in or out at the price you expect.
This definition is educational and not financial advice. Crypto is volatile and high-risk — always do your own research.
