    As a leading cryptocurrency exchange, BYDFi understands the importance of bid-ask spread in the cryptocurrency market. The bid-ask spread is a key indicator of market liquidity and efficiency. It represents the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept (ask). A narrow bid-ask spread indicates a liquid market with tight spreads, making it easier for traders to buy and sell cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, a wide bid-ask spread suggests lower liquidity and potentially higher trading costs. At BYDFi, we strive to provide a transparent and efficient trading environment with competitive bid-ask spreads to ensure our users can trade cryptocurrencies with ease and confidence.
