XBTO Taps Algorand to Push ALGO Liquidity Across Tier-1 Crypto Exchanges

TLDR:

  • Algorand named XBTO as market maker to boost ALGO liquidity across Tier-1 and Tier-2 crypto exchanges.
  • XBTO will use Algorand’s low-cost blockchain to move USDC between custody wallets and exchanges with speed.
  • Stronger liquidity support aims to make ALGO trading smoother as institutional crypto adoption keeps expanding.
  • Algorand’s partnership with XBTO highlights growing demand for reliable infrastructure in tokenized asset markets.

Crypto markets run fast, but without liquidity they stall. Buyers and sellers can find themselves waiting, and prices move too sharply. Market makers exist to fix that, and without them, trading feels broken. 

Institutions want in, but without deep liquidity the process is clunky. Algorand is addressing that gap through a fresh partnership that brings new liquidity power.

XBTO Strengthens ALGO Liquidity Across Exchanges

On August 27, the Algorand Foundation announced that XBTO will act as a market maker for ALGO. The update was shared through the foundation’s official X post. XBTO, a well-known global digital asset manager, will now provide trading depth for ALGO on Tier-1 and Tier-2 exchanges.

Consistent liquidity is a core piece of mature markets. Algorand stated that this step ensures smoother trading conditions while reducing volatility. By having XBTO present across exchanges, buyers and sellers get reliable counterparties, keeping trades efficient and less costly.

The foundation added that analysts are projecting steady growth for tokenized asset markets heading into 2030. For that reason, having a proven institutional partner like XBTO handling ALGO liquidity is part of a long-term strategy. The move aligns Algorand closer with the needs of growing institutional demand.

Liquidity has been a pain point in crypto for years. The XBTO partnership is designed to create a continuous market presence that makes ALGO trading more predictable and efficient.

Stablecoin Transfers Powered by Algorand’s Blockchain

Beyond ALGO liquidity, the partnership extends into stablecoin flows. XBTO will rely on Algorand’s blockchain to transfer USDC between custody wallets and exchanges. The Algorand Foundation noted that these transfers are essential for treasury operations and exchange rebalancing.

Fast and low-cost transfers mean capital can move without bottlenecks. This function becomes critical when institutional desks rebalance large amounts of stablecoins across different venues. Algorand’s infrastructure is built for these kinds of transactions.

The foundation stressed that interoperability remains a key goal. By streamlining stablecoin transfers, Algorand positions itself as an efficient hub in the broader digital asset ecosystem. This use case connects liquidity providers, custodians, and trading venues with seamless rails.

According to Algorand’s statement, this is not just a one-off partnership. It represents part of its plan to build infrastructure that keeps pace with institutional adoption. With XBTO onboard, both ALGO liquidity and stablecoin flows gain a stronger foundation

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
