According to Nic Carter, crypto-related activities encompass roles such as crypto-asset custodians, stablecoin reserve maintainers, issuers of crypto and digital assets, market makers, and exchange or redemption agents. These activities directly impact trading dynamics by influencing liquidity, asset availability, and market stability. For traders, understanding the roles and operations of these entities can provide insights into market movements and potential opportunities or risks, as cited by Nic Carter on March 28, 2025, via Twitter.

According to Ai 姨, $PARTI has once again demonstrated the typical IDO strategy by first initiating on-chain trading without market makers to allow retail investors to trade and prevent price inflation. Following this, $PARTI was listed on exchanges to potentially drive price action, which is considered a normal market behavior post-listing. Additionally, this process also positively influenced Binance Wallet.

According to CrypNuevo, market sentiment for Bitcoin has improved following the short liquidations at $87.1k. This change presents a potential opportunity for market makers to induce volatility again. A potential pullback is anticipated over the next 1-2 weeks as the market might retrace its recent recovery.

According to CrypNuevo, the primary liquidations in the low-time frame are currently on the downside, indicating long liquidations due to recent market bounces that have given retail traders confidence to go long. However, market makers might be strategizing a new purge, with significant liquidity positioned at $82.7k and $81k.

According to Greeks.live, the Greeks RFQ Platform is focusing on optimizing the crypto options block trading process by improving RFQ conversion rates through precise filtering of valid inquiries. This initiative aims to provide high-quality trading opportunities for market makers, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the trading process.

According to Crypto Rover, $600 million in stablecoins were issued on Solana today, marking the largest 24-hour liquidity injection ever recorded. This significant influx of capital suggests that market makers are preparing for a potential market pump, indicating a bullish sentiment in the Solana ecosystem.

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa), BNX surged to a high of $1.84. As of 14:10, contract trading data shows a long-short account ratio of 17.79% long vs. 82.21% short, and a long-short position ratio of 65.05% long vs. 34.95% short. This indicates that despite the majority of accounts being short, the majority of the capital is held by a minority of long positions, suggesting that project teams, market makers, or whales are firmly taking the opposite side, potentially setting up to liquidate short positions.

According to Crypto Rover (@rovercrc), a significant whale insider has closed all of their $ETH positions, leading to a notable reaction from market makers. This event could indicate a shift in market dynamics or a strategic move by the whale, potentially affecting ETH's price and market liquidity.

According to trevor.btc, Ordinals projects raised millions, allocating a quarter of their holdings to market makers for wash trading to simulate success. These projects failed to hire staff or deliver products, with founders exiting and cashing out. Consequently, these projects have plummeted by 90%, adversely affecting the broader market.

According to Crypto Rover, Circle has minted 8.75 billion USDC since January 1, 2025. This significant increase in USDC supply indicates potential preparations by market makers to influence market liquidity and price movements. Traders should monitor the USDC supply closely, as such large-scale minting can impact trading strategies and market volatility.

According to Gordon (@AltcoinGordon), there is a notable inequality in cryptocurrency markets where market makers, centralized exchanges (CEXs), and decentralized exchanges (DEXs) hold significant advantages. Traders should focus on strategies such as front running to anticipate and react to the actions of these influential players to gain an edge in the market. This insight stresses the importance of understanding market dynamics and the actions of major players for successful trading.

According to Crypto Rover, Binance has officially denied selling Bitcoin, SOL, or ETH and attributes recent market movements to actions by market makers (Crypto Rover, 2025). This clarification is crucial for traders monitoring market trends and price action, as it suggests that Binance's own trading activities are not influencing current price volatility (Crypto Rover, 2025). Traders should consider this clarification when evaluating the causes of recent price fluctuations in these cryptocurrencies (Crypto Rover, 2025).

According to Tetranode, market makers may have initiated short positions in response to recent market signals. This action could influence short-term price movements and volatility in the cryptocurrency market, providing both risk and opportunity for traders who are actively monitoring market maker activities.

According to CrypNuevo, the individual $200 position might seem negligible to market makers, but when 10,000 traders adopt the same strategy and place their stop-losses similarly, the cumulative effect becomes significant. This can potentially influence market movements, as the aggregated positions represent a substantial volume that market makers could target. Such actions can lead to stop-loss hunting, where price movements trigger these collective stop-losses, affecting market liquidity and volatility. This emphasizes the importance for traders to consider the broader market impact of widely adopted trading strategies.

According to Liquidity Doctor, a recent event involved a manipulation candle used to trigger stop-loss orders (SL) for a large group of traders, highlighting the vulnerability of low cap coins to market maker strategies, necessitating a solution for traders to protect their positions.

According to Liquidity Doctor, Bitcoin is undergoing a retracement, indicating a market movement that aligns with previous discussions of market maker strategies. Retail traders are advised to understand these strategies to avoid common pitfalls.

According to EmberCN, the price of BGB has experienced a substantial increase, rising from $2.2 to $2.9 in a short period. This surge is accompanied by increasing visibility of Bitget in on-chain data, particularly in addresses associated with market makers and whales. This trend suggests growing interest and activity around BGB among significant market participants.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, EIGEN will allow token transfers starting today at 12:00. It is reported that three market makers have been allocated a total of 6.48 million $EIGEN tokens for market making. The distribution is as follows: Flow Traders received 3.45 million tokens, Auros Global received 1.60 million tokens, and an unknown market maker received 1.43 million tokens. Interestingly, EIGEN, a leader in the re-staking sector, did not engage with more prominent market makers.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, the tokens were airdropped in bulk by the project team, similar to an advertising method, and were not actively held by the two market makers.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, the recent performance of $RARE is reminiscent of $TRB and $BLZ at the end of last year. Common traits include sudden price surges without positive news, widespread visibility of K-line charts across various groups, and Binance contracts settling funding rates every four hours, creating a 'gamblers' paradise.' However, unlike TRB and BLZ, where on-chain activities of market makers and whales were traceable, RARE lacks such identifiable movements.
