Denarii Labs Cohort 1 — Kairon Labs: Market Making and Liquidity (Week 7 Recap)

In the world of cryptocurrencies, market makers inhabit a crucial role. These entities ensure continuous availability of assets for trade, thus stabilizing the market and reducing the risk of erratic price swings that would come with simple P2P order books. Market makers maintain market liquidity by providing both buy and sell orders, profiting from the price spread, and aiding in smoother, more stable market operations.

We partnered with one of the top market makers in the industry, Kairon Labs. The majority of this week was based on learning from their expertise, which for a cohort about to launch five token projects, was invaluable.

Mentor Talk: Matt Engel Head of BD for Kairon Labs

Matt provided the cohort a full course on market makers: Who they are, what they do, the benefits they provide, and how they operate. To put it simply, Kairon makes sure that the price of a certain asset always has some level of liquidity near the current price. This keeps the bid or ask price from moving too far up or down to meet the “next best order”; instead they ARE the next best order, for both buy and sell side.

He also delved into the two main pricing structures: Retainer or Loan. With retainer, it involves a fixed monthly fee for a split of any trading profit, but can increase risk. In a loan model, the market maker borrows a portion of the token and makes their profit from those trades, incentivizing them to keep the token’s value above their margins.

On Friday, Matt returned to work with the team and emphasize the importance of selecting the right market maker. Any shop can have the right liquidity, the right pricing and strategy, but having someone in your corner to help with exchange listings or advisory can really be the game-changer for a token project.
