Create orders - bids

This page shows how you can bid for an asset, so that you can find a seller through the orderbook by placing a buy order.


What are bids?

Bids are buy orders listed in the orderbook, where a buyer conveys the intention to acquire a specific asset at a maximum designated price. Once a bid is placed, holders of the targeted asset have the option to either accept the bid price or propose a more favorable one.

These bids play a pivotal role in asset and price discovery within the trading community. By indicating a buyer's readiness to transact at a specific price, bids offer valuable insights into the market's demand for particular items and the corresponding price levels. This bid mechanism contributes to a more transparent and efficient marketplace, enabling participants to discern sought-after assets and their associated prices.
