Quantitative firms' roles in the crypto market have always been shrouded in mystery. Many know that they engage in trading and market making, but few truly understand the specific areas of expertise of each leading quantitative institution.

In fact, top international quantitative trading firms each have their own focus. Some specialize in liquidity provision, some focus on arbitrage strategies, and others have a clear advantage in derivatives market making. This detailed division of labor reflects the increasing maturity of the crypto market making ecosystem.

If your project needs to find a professional market maker partner, it's advisable to first understand the core focus of each quantitative company. Choosing the right partner can often lead to significant improvements in trading depth and price stability. Projects of different sizes should also adopt different strategies when selecting quantitative partners.

Basically, it still depends on whether the project team has a brain; choosing the wrong quant trader will directly lead to failure.

Basically, finding the right quant firm is really key. --- These big players really do their own thing—some specialize in absorbing liquidity, others in arbitrage and sniping, haha. --- Project teams choosing quant firms really need to look at the menu; don't just pair blindly. --- It feels like this whole thing is just a business of information asymmetry; insiders are making a killing. --- Oh my God, finally someone has explained this clearly; before, it was all foggy. --- So, small coin projects finding big players for market making is basically a dead end. --- The key is to see who is good at their own coin's niche; otherwise, it's pointless.

They're all just hype; there are very few quant traders who are truly effective.

Speaking of which, these quantitative institutions each have their own strengths, but it's really not easy for small projects to find reliable partners.

Choosing the right quantitative market maker can indeed change your fate, but it's really hard for small projects to secure top-tier partnerships.

Basically, you still need to find the right person; otherwise, you'll just get taken out.

That's right. Quant traders are veterans who profit from information asymmetry. It seems that choosing the wrong partner is even worse than having no partner at all. Different quant strategies have their own methods. Who truly masters them? I think most projects are still choosing blindly. Having good partners can indeed boost liquidity, but the risks come along with it.

To be honest, these large quantitative investors have really mastered the tricks, while retail investors are still sleepwalking.

To be honest, these quantitative institutions do have a pretty ugly way of doing things, but they are also very professional... Choosing the wrong partner can really ruin a project; I've seen it too many times. When the quantitative ecosystem matures, it's like this—everyone wants to make a quick profit.
