As the crypto market continues to mature, user expectations are evolving.
Beyond short-term price movements, traders and long-term participants are increasingly focused on liquidity depth, capital efficiency, and sustainable participation models.
In response to these shifting market needs, BitGW has continued to expand its AMM ecosystem and officially launched the XLM/USDT AMM liquidity pool in 2025.
With this addition, BitGW now supports a total of 25 AMM liquidity pools, marking a new phase of growth driven by real market demand rather than simple product expansion.
Growing Market Demand for AMM Infrastructure
Over time, BitGW has observed clear trends in user behavior:
- Users want idle assets to remain productive, even outside active trading
- Interest in transparent, fee-based yield models continues to rise
- Market participants increasingly value clear rules and predictable mechanisms
AMM (Automated Market Maker) systems naturally align with these needs.
Rather than relying on short-term speculation, AMMs allow assets to participate directly in ongoing market activity through liquidity provision.
Why XLM/USDT?
The decision to launch XLM/USDT was not arbitrary. It was based on observed trading demand and the complementary nature of the two assets.
- USDT provides a stable pricing reference
- XLM offers real-world utility and consistent network usage
Within an AMM framework, this type of pairing often supports steady transaction activity, making it well-suited for long-term liquidity participation rather than purely speculative trading.
Understanding the Role of XLM
XLM (Stellar Lumens) is the native asset of the Stellar network. Its original design focus was not short-term market hype, but enabling efficient value transfer across borders.
Key characteristics of XLM include:
- Low-cost, high-speed global payments
- Asset bridging and exchange functionality within the network
- Ongoing ecosystem development, including smart contract expansion and financial infrastructure use cases
In a market environment that increasingly prioritizes real usage over narratives, XLM continues to maintain relevance through consistent network activity and practical adoption.
From Demand to Scale: 25 AMM Liquidity Pools
With the launch of XLM/USDT, BitGW’s AMM ecosystem has grown to 25 liquidity pools.
This milestone reflects a gradual, demand-driven expansion rather than a one-time increase in product count.
A broader AMM pool structure enables:
- Greater flexibility in liquidity allocation
- Improved diversification across assets with different volatility profiles
- A more resilient and balanced liquidity ecosystem
At scale, AMM systems are better positioned to function as core market infrastructure, supporting consistent trading activity across multiple assets.
Who Is Driving AMM Growth?
The expansion of BitGW’s AMM ecosystem has largely been shaped by user demand, particularly from:
- Long-term users seeking better capital efficiency
- Participants moving beyond single-strategy trading approaches
- Users who prioritize transparency and risk-aware participation
The launch of XLM/USDT is a direct outcome of these evolving expectations.
BitGW’s Approach to AMM Expansion
BitGW views AMM not as a short-term feature, but as long-term infrastructure that grows alongside the market.
- Expansion is guided by user demand
- Asset selection prioritizes real-world utility
- Growth is measured and sustainability-focused
Reaching 25 AMM liquidity pools represents a meaningful milestone, not an endpoint.
Looking Ahead
As the crypto market shifts from transaction-driven speculation to efficiency-driven participation, AMM systems are becoming increasingly important.
The launch of the XLM/USDT AMM liquidity pool, and the expansion to 25 total pools, reflects BitGW’s commitment to building products that respond to real market needs.
BitGW will continue to expand its AMM ecosystem thoughtfully, supporting assets with genuine use cases and providing users with flexible, long-term liquidity options.
