Liquidity

Dual-Engine Liquidity Model

MC Markets moves beyond the traditional order-book waiting model by combining MLP (Asset Center) and HSF (Risk Center) into a unified system. Together, they create a dynamic liquidity ecosystem that delivers instant execution with transparent depth, even under volatile market conditions.


MLP Vault

The MLP Vault is the platform’s liquidity backbone. Deposit USDC and you become a liquidity partner, powering instant execution across every instrument on MC Markets.

Execution Mechanism & Transparency

To ensure clear and verifiable use of funds, MLP adopts a transparent trade-tracking mechanism:

  • Returns: Earnings are generated from trading fee distribution and funding rate capture through hedging. Returns are settled daily (T+1) and automatically compounded. The displayed APY reflects actual market performance and is not a guaranteed rate.

  • Instant Execution: Trades are matched directly against the MLP pool by algorithms, without waiting for a counterparty. This ensures immediate execution across all market conditions.

  • Real Time Verification: Users can review transaction history to verify trade execution and monitor vault fund activity in real time.

  • Lock-up Period: Funds are locked for 4 days. Adding more funds before the lock-up ends will reset the lock period for the full balance.

The maximum deposit per account is 10,000 USDC, and deposit capacity increases according to your points.

2,000 pts

Up to 2,500 USDC (25%)

10,000 pts

Up to 5,000 USDC (50%)

50,000 pts

Up to 7,500 USDC (75%)

100,000 pts

Up to 10,000 USDC (100%)

If you have fewer than 2,000 points, deposits are not yet available. Earn points by trading or referring others to unlock deposit access.

HSF: Hedge Strategy Fund

HSF is an independent fund that actively manages platform-wide risk. It uses market-making strategies to offset inventory exposure and safeguard liquidity pools, even during extreme market conditions.

MLP (Market Liquidity Pool) provides the liquidity, while HSF manages the associated risk. Together, they help maintain platform stability and secure trading operations.


User Participation & Returns

Return Structure

MLP returns are designed for steady, compounding growth through diversified revenue streams:

  • Multiple Revenue Sources: Returns come from trading fee distribution and funding rate capture through hedging strategies.

  • Settlement & Compounding: Profits are settled on a T+1 daily basis and automatically added to principal for compound growth.

  • Expected Returns: Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is determined by actual market performance and is not fixed.

Deposit & Withdrawal Rules

  • Supported Asset: MLP accepts USDC only.

  • Lock-Up Reset Rule: Each deposit has a lock-up period. If an additional deposit is made before the existing lock-up expires, the entire balance will have its lock-up period reset based on the most recent deposit time.


Liquidity Depth & Price Impact

While algorithmic execution ensures speed, large trade sizes may still affect execution price:

  • Price Impact: The difference between the expected execution price and the actual filled price.

  • Scale Effect: Price impact is directly related to liquidity pool size. Larger pools reduce impact for the same trade size.

  • Transparent Estimation: The system estimates and displays the expected price impact before order confirmation, ensuring full transparency for users.
