Title: Providing Liquidity
Post by: mdj on December 24, 2014, 01:19:20 pm
I want to start providing liquidity to BitAssets.

Has work already been done in this space? It would make sense to get a tried and tested arbitrage script up and running which the community could run to make a small profit but more importantly - provide increased liquidity to the platform.

What risk elements can you see in this field?

You can run a simple MM with this script:  https://github.com/freetradebots/bts_bots

Anyone that has written a more advanced market-maker has not made it public yet because it's still profitable.

Arbitrage honestly doesn't help much and will happen naturally. Market-making is harder and more valuable.

This looks good - I'll have a play this holiday :)
Thanks!
