You Are the Exit Liquidity
When you buy a token on a major exchange, you're buying it from someone who got there first.
Take Solana.
It launched in March 2020, and Coinbase didn't list it until June 2021.
That's 15 months of trading... before it ever showed up in your app.
And when it finally did, the people already holding it got the one thing they needed... buyers.
They got their exit.
So where were they buying it all that time?
The Native Markets. The venues where assets trade BEFORE the big exchanges get around to listing them.
When you buy on major exchanges, you're the exit liquidity.
When you buy in the Native Markets, you're the early investor.
