StandX Market Making Program

Overview

To enhance liquidity depth and reward consistent contributors, StandX is launching its Market Making (MM) Program. The program provides preferential fees and access to a monthly StandX Reward Pool.

Each month, 5,000,000 StandX tokens will be distributed to eligible market makers based on their effective maker volume and trading performance.

Liquidity Provision Requirements

  • Quoting Standards:
    • Bid and Offer sizes meet or exceed the minimum size requirement for the pairs
    • Bid-Offer Spread is within the allowed limit (e.g., ≤0.1% for BTC/ETH/SOL, ≤0.25% for other pairs).
    • Orders remain live in the Orderbook for at least 0.5 seconds at a time.
    • The Bid/Offer spread is calculated as ( [Offer price at Minimum Size] - [Bid price at Minimum Size]) / { ([Offer price at Minimum Size] + [Bid price at Minimum Size]) /2 } < [Required Bid/Offer spread].

  • Qualifying Percentage for that Pair on the Day (from 00:00 to 23:59 UTC):
    • The pair is only counted if the MM maintains these standards for ≥70% of that trading day.
    • If [Qualifying %] < 70%, that pair’s volume is excluded from the MM’s effective maker volume.
