It enables traders to anonymously access aggregated liquidity and pricing from several makers at a time, it is especially useful for large size orders when the depth of the market cannot meet the requirement. Given more and more traditional financial institutions entering the crypto market, RFQ can play an important role in the growth of institutional crypto options trading.
With this partnership, when a user uses RFQ on BIT, BIT calls Greeks.Live to obtain quotations from multiple makers and push the best quotations to the user. If a user accepts the quotation and confirms the transaction, BIT will call Greeks.Live to initiate the transaction and complete the settlement on BIT.
