Wintermute: Will Provide Liquidity for Prediction Markets

Wintermute stated that it is expanding its institutional trading business to prediction markets. Wintermute will provide two-way market liquidity for event contracts on major venues to reduce spreads, support larger-scale trades, and improve the reliability of market-implied probabilities.Jake Ostrovskis, Head of OTC Trading at Wintermute, stated that prediction markets exhibit data characteristics similar to major asset classes, but liquidity remains in its early stages. Continuous two-way liquidity will not only narrow spreads but also support larger trading volumes, thereby improving the signals contained in market prices. (cointelegraph)
