What Is Liquidity?
Liquidity is the amount of assets available inside a trading pool.
A liquidity pool contains:
Asset | Purpose |
|---|---|
Your Token | Asset being traded |
SOL | Base currency used to buy and sell |
The ratio between these assets determines your token price.
Example:
Asset | Amount |
|---|---|
SOL | 10 |
Token | 1,000,000 |
Starting Price:
0.00001 SOL per token

Without liquidity:
❌ Nobody can buy
