Understanding Market Making and Its Importance

A deep dive into the world of market making, how it works, and why it is crucial for token liquidity and price stability.

What is Market Making?

Market making is the practice of continuously quoting buy and sell orders to create a liquid market. Makers aim to capture spread and rebates while minimizing inventory risk. On Solana, low fees and fast finality enable tighter spreads and higher quote frequency.

Why it Matters

  • Liquidity: Lower price impact for traders, better user experience
  • Price Stability: Narrower spreads reduce volatility
  • Efficient Price Discovery: Faster convergence toward fair value

Market Making on Solana DEXs

Most activity routes through AMMs and aggregators:

Practical Playbook

  1. Seed initial liquidity and set target spreads
  2. Use natural-looking flow with a Solana Volume Bot
  3. Protect against MEV and congestion using Jito and premium RPCs like Helius
  4. Measure Volume/TVL, realized spread, failure rate; iterate weekly
